thank you.
Telling Satan he was my betrayer
Because I was about to destroy myself
And destroy Gay in the doing of it
Then Satan said 'I do not love you'
Which really hurt my feelings
So its his fault I went all judgemental
Told Yetzoah the same with more emphasis
Said i just can't trust you.
So I'm leaving your way and your place
Cos you'ere nasty and cruel and wicked
Just like the other ones!
There must be some other way, I insisted
I shall leave and find it alone, set up my own.
And with that marched of in a huff.
Then that bloody testing started
Gay testing me to destruction
He's like a big black vampire bat, an i said.
Because i'm truthful. an he gets on my wick
Putting me out as he does so.
So I asked Satan to in the future
Find someone a friend who might love me
Well there's none in the past, I don't think so
And I asked Yetzoah to guide by hand
Through this terrible riddle an promised to keep my eyes closed.
Holding my hand, cos I can't understand
And cannot properly see. Like a kid blindfold?
And Gay said, why are you waving that sword?
You're going to the kingdom of Heaven.
You're going to the realms of peace.
So I declared I like swords , good design you know
Anyway I never been in a fight so a coward am I
AN if Heaven is full of evil ones then
Obviously I got to bump them all off
The minute I get in.
I expect a lot of battles and rowls.
Why, asks Gay. Because you'll blow up the Earth
And if you do that while I'm sitting on it
Heaven won't be peaceful very long.
So Gay stood me before the gates of Heaven
Trying to see/foresee/remember
Iknew there were forests and gardens and nice
Dwellings and plenty to eat. So it is Heaven!
And cried in despair..O Gay! O No!
You set me up! You pinched it from pilgrims progress
They'll demand a scroll, and a name and a ring
O Gay, I'm your slave; I have nothing.
OGay, why must you be, so terribly evil?
Then I saw a woman at the door and asked for aid
And I called to the watchman on the battlements
'O let me in, I'm evil Idone it wrong all my life
i guessed. Iweptsaying; when the good say charity
they immediately talk on about money.
So I hope, yes I hope , O let my need lend wings to my prayer
That these the evil know that charity iswhat is given
And in charity forgiven? is it given even to the poor?
So Iask you lords of evil, for charity.
Because I never had any.
And Gay looked at me and for the first he looked with pride
I don't know whats going on up there now
All I can do is lie on my couch and weep in rest
My spirits within and some without are singing
Singing peace peace unto thee; you are in the kingdom of heaven.
Im in peace and filled to the crown of my head
and drenched with love to the soles at my feet
This rest, this kiss, of my strange friend, o a kiss from me unto thee
And I know thy name is Charity.
