Hat Trick

Don't be too quick to explain.

Things change. Things change faster than
You can explain them.

What else are you going to do
Since you're still alive?
Things change while you explain them.
Explanations don't survive.

I'm scared of your scrutiny,
You cried in your sleep.
I am no one's deity,
But it's my Shabbat you keep.

I'm the man who comes around
And passes the empty hat.
I can live with that.
