This piece is about
the Game of Life and how people try and control others through religion and the
bible. So many times people find themselves under the thumb of those whose
rhetoric is manipulating and intimidating. Perhaps why many churches are so
rich
Who and Why
So many
times we oftenponder
Who we are and whence we come from
We search our histories whatever
Always looking wondering
Why and how we came this way
And how we are supposed to play
The Game of Life
There are many I have found
Trying so hard to confuse our minds
With rhetoric and religious sound
Preferring us a captive audience to be
Fiddlee do, fidllee dee

Raver!!!!!
Bible Quoters
The bible in itself
A great book to study
Filled with parables of great note
Ways to do things as of old
Full of words to be taken literally
Perhaps
By those without much brain
And then twisted by manipulators
Seeking to use us for their own means
Meanings made up in their dark selves
To slap us on the head when we
Do wrong according to their judgement
But who are they to judge!!!

Fill My Pockets with your
Monies
I have met so many folk like them
Who high on pulpits stand
Doom and gloom their message be
Do it my way so you be saved
(Oh oh dear God help me!)
Fill my pockets with your money
they do say
Then you will do what's right (for me)
So you see them
Hear them
Those TV evangelists
Shaking their angry fists at all in sight
The thousands who flock to see them
The Crystal Cathedral just one instance
Of such naivety

Doing for Yourself
Come up, come up and I will heal you
Of your infirmities
Just fill my hat with filthy lucre
And your sickness will go away
Your blindness will disappear
Your crutch you throw away
How can you be so stupid
You who sit there at their feet
Empty eyes gazing
Hoping desperately for a savior
To come and do for you
What you too lazy can do for yourself
Or maybe you just dont know how
So brainwashed have you been
Taught to do as others tell you
Never questioning
And thus losing self sufficiency
Teach a man to fish and he will always eat
Give him a fish and he will be back tomorrow
Tomorrow, all of his tomorrows
Of your infirmities
Just fill my hat with filthy lucre
And your sickness will go away
Your blindness will disappear
Your crutch you throw away
How can you be so stupid
You who sit there at their feet
Empty eyes gazing
Hoping desperately for a savior
To come and do for you
What you too lazy can do for yourself
Or maybe you just dont know how
So brainwashed have you been
Taught to do as others tell you
Never questioning
And thus losing self sufficiency
Teach a man to fish and he will always eat
Give him a fish and he will be back tomorrow
Tomorrow, all of his tomorrows
A Recurring Song.....
So it
goes on
Time after time
Through the centuries
Man's inhumanity to man
In countless ways
We see it
Hear it
Read it
Day after day
And who is doing anything about it??????
I could tell you but you already know......

Recognition of Self
When you
finally turn
To see your beautiful Self
The worthiness of who you are
In brightness you do shine
To honour your self and others
And see the Light in all
Then that day angels they will gather
And set you on the throne
Of your Beingness
To see your beautiful Self
The worthiness of who you are
In brightness you do shine
To honour your self and others
And see the Light in all
Then that day angels they will gather
And set you on the throne
Of your Beingness
and so it is
and so it is
and so it is
