Custard

When the house is a mess and there's dust everywhere
from the scraping and sanding and painting;
when you've scriptures to study and a sermon to write
and meetings and fielding of phone calls;
when you can't find direction and struggle to start
and can't find the wine or the whiskey:
Make a big bowl of custard, grab a new book,
curl up in a chair in the study,
and travel the world in some other dimension -
then maybe you'll find inspiration....
