I captained the slave ships of old Yet I could only ride in the back of the bus In a white hood I lit the cross And watched it burn through fear that I might be next I am black; I am white I am the slave and the master I ruled without mercy, killing those less human than me Yet I died in the gas chambers with my family I am the German; I am the Jew I am the elite and the chosen few While demanding women’s rights I invoked Sharia I claimed this land for God And sued to keep Him out of it I flew the plane that brought the towers down And lost my life trying to get others out I am the son of Isaac; the descendent of Ishmael Does Abraham know me now I demanded equal rights for all While denying the rights of Christians I oppose the murder of the innocent Yet I seek abortion and call it my right to choose I am the persecuted, I am the persecutor The victim and the victor In the name of God, I kill In the name of God, I die I shall be judged as I have judged May Mercy find its way to me Melody Wilson aka Lyn Eagleton 11/3/05 Please forgive any political incorrectness here, I was simply rambling on after watching the news.Silly me. |
