THE GOSPEL
They waltz up to you
Good great best friends
With a million dollar fake smile
Sweet as old little Judas' kiss
Only unlike Jesus you never tell
Naive silly you confidently confides
No sooner and you hear the gospel out there
Gospel with just as many authors as versions
All are christians and your gospel their testimony
So fluent on their tongues its heavenly
Come one come all the crusade grows
Take a sip and thou shall never thirst
Its all divine gossip you can't miss
And that's how crucifixion gently begins
But still unlike Christ you won't ressutect to tell the tale
The walk to Golgotha gets weary,too weary
Your larger than eternity cross on your unforgiven bare shoulders
They strip you naked and gamble on your future
An unbearable crown of shame glittering on your hung head
Your mouth is forced shut not to sip on the bitter herbs
While double edged spear cuts through your ribs of dignity
Finally a shell of your former glory is all there is
The background loud whispers can't allow you a day of tranquility
The ghosts increase their night visitations
And on the wall you dream of two angels,life and death
LIVE OR DIE
We all know which angel succeeds....
