Looking for the gifts and the fruits Not growing up to be one of those suits I asked why I wasn’t suddenly wise And why it is that everyone dies If we’re all eternal And what is the infernal But another cast of the dice And reincarnation means more than twice What do people believe The kingdom of heaven up your sleeve Or something new He came to save all of you And his example Means no sheep is left stranded On a mountaintop His Love is a lot And I find it hard to bear The way the fabric suddenly tear The sky in two I was with him but thinking of You And summer came just like a minidress The ominous that I suppress Threatens to override The system that I’ve tried to hide In all the folds and creases of paper Get out of the rat race and caper That endlessly flies As somewhere in the distance a child cries With no one too soothe And I’m self indulgently in a mood Coz I don’t get my way But what would God say If he had breath to breathe And lungs with which the words were freed To express themselves Is it time to take honesty down off the shelves
