Ivan Turgenev
When life seems like a muddle
And the waters have been muddied
by the words that people say and things they do
When your boots seemed stuck and mired
And you really are quite tired
From the muddle that seems like life to you
Grab that mud and make some mud pies
Leave your footprints
Make a disguise
When your boots seemed stuck and mired
And you really are quite tired
From the muddle that seems like life to you
Grab that mud and make some mud pies
Leave your footprints
Make a disguise
Take the muddle and build a stairway to the sky!
and that's poetiquejustis
I waited patiently for the LORD;
He turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud
and mire;
He set my feet on a rock
Psalm 40:1-2
