Selfish self focus in the distance

I often pray for things
Out of my selfish being

And sadly with views
Turning towards these
Preceived horizons of me

I still look and look
And look upon
Distant futures of me

Without once a true thankful though
Given to the very cup set before me

And on this front
My eyes, could be better in being

In their perceptiveneaa newed
With new seeing

Amen
