The Priest talking on a Pulpit in The Great In-Between

Foundation. In this modern world, has mankind forgotten judgment may await if one is religious? Title. The Priest talking on a Pulpit in The Great In-Between (A regal voice whispers) You do know What you do and feel in public or secret My child Writes all your life's many hidden manuscripts And follow's you like a Charles Dickens's Jacob Marley Character Into and after the crypt So do more good Purge yourself. Pull yourself away from the Great Tempter's black hole Don't just sit and judge Urge your soul Or the goal could be You Stripped and whipped as you become Just another Of the Devils legion's Of unloved conscripts (C) Copyright John Duffy
