Says the snake 
In the Garden of Eden 

Says the doctor 
In the Emergency Room 

Says the President 
In the boobtube of fake news 

Says the Priests up 
In their pulpits 

Says the parent 
In a position of trust 

However, there is only 
One person 
In whom we can truly trust.

Sorry to hear it but good to see you're meditating on important issues. You might find the website JW.org to be of some help getting answers

Lately, I've been in and out of the ER and Urology wants to turn me into one of their dialysis patients. But I'm not fooled, it's my sciatica catching up with my aching aging body. I've had a lot of time to pray and contemplate life, the universe and everything.
