A Worrisome and Quarrelsome Christian
A man I believed was just venturesome
But to his old enemies meddlesome,
To newly made ones quarrelsome
And to even his best friend worrisome
Proved them, all right with The Irksome:
In a crusade for Christ The Awesome,
Openly kissing a man who looked handsome
Like king David’s charming Absalom,
Evangelism describing as cumbersome
And concerned brethrens as troublesome!
And as though food Demons had him bid,
To their cauldron walked up for its lid,
Waiting to pounce on the solemnly hid;
Of his educated fears rashly rid.
