Sermon From Under the Earth

blessed are the fools who call themselves fools for others will call them wise blessed are those who cry out to the world with stammering tongues crouching aching and sweating over endless lines of gibberish that fall like drum beats from the tips of their frantic pens for they will be called Earnest blessed are the ones who suffer withdrawals dope-sick shaking and sweating desperate for a drink or a fix for I will make them High indeed! blessed are the sexual "deviants" cast away by the "holy" as unclean for they know that no man or woman may call unclean anything that God has declared clean Blessed are those who shake their fists in rage at the heavens, cursing them for they will dance in the pouring rain
