A Religious DisturbEarly one bright and sunny Saturday morning
I woke with bad breath on the wrong side of the bed
But still enjoying the luxurious ritual of stretching and yawning
Wishing I could dive back into those blessed dreams
But a well tuned instinct warns of something
Creeping toward my door masquerading as Religious Morality(surely intervening for my Soul)
And is on its way and nothing in the imagination can stop its coming
Before I can even fall out of my oh so comfortable bed
I can hear the chatter of muted indecipherable talking
While I feel the patter of the self-righteous foot-steps walking
After the front door-bell chimes the Song of the Doomed
In the sudden, stifling silence, surprisingly no-one hears the hammer of a gun cocking
Back on the single shot twenty gauge sawed-off shotgun
I keep near my front entrance for the intrusions of unwanted guests that come knockin
So obsessed with the need to save un-baptized Souls, they NEVER think to listenFor the unwelcoming noise that reveals the signal of remorseless Death stalking
The next victim of The Savage Garden
Who will soon be underground decomposing and slowly rotting

2/3
Children of God brutally slain in a way that the circumstances seem insane
It is a crime against all things Godly so in the minds
Of even the most cynical, its a dreadful criminal deed utterly shocking
Twas a false vision the God sent these misguided Souls
In the interminable seconds before they fatally rang my door-bell
Because I believe the Gods and Devils of ALL Religions
Keep a secret so terrible that They can never allow any to ever tell
Ancient Wisdom that has been forgotten in the shifting whirlwinds of Time
Secrets from long before the great culture of Mesopotamia fellThe distant truth is that They are both one and the same
And ONLY in the Earthly Realm can They even dwell
Collecting our perplexed Souls with startlingly ease
For in this buyers market, every man, woman, and child is eager to sell
The most important thing they possess, for without the Soul
A person is without moral essence and exists as just a hollowed shell
Wasting away in the ridiculousness of a pointless life
And this to me is the very definition of what yall might call Hell
But as spiritual as my words may sound to a jury of my peers,
To whom my story the prosecutors forced me to tell,
I know it is all nonsense and the REAL truth is that
I am mentally disturbed, psychologically un-well
I knew I was in the wrong even as the shot-gun blast
Echoed about my head when the first body fell

To the cold floor, laying at rest
Bleeding his lifes blood in a wa
My only defense is that if he ha
He would still be alive thus I fe
near the polished shoes of his best friend
that offered no hope for help
not disturbed my Saturday morning,
l the man killed himself
