Israel - "To wrestle with God" (poem) Genesis 25-50
Two wrongs do not make a right
Jacob for Israel, wrestled with God.
An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.
Life itself is to "wrestle with God",
To exist in spite of yourself
This takes finesse, to manifest
An acceptable performance
And compete for attention
With your brother, until death do us part,
Piano man clothed in his technicolor dreamcoat
Eye doll of his father, he can do no wrong,
The piano man wears rose glasses
Up on stage in full dress
Of a high priest who sends a message
Into the maddening screaming crowd,
And after the show they beat him in the alley,
And steal his clothes, then sell him into slavery
As he has become the sex object he was
Under the kingdom of the star-maker machine
He rose again to fame, only this time in favour of the king
He rose again, as others made their way to the stage,
By the crossroad of selling their soul to fame
All were slaves of the rain man, showered
With wealth and fame, to achieve
Great success, in their day
And just at the disco height of their mirrorball way
In came the crap rappers, graffiti artists
Spewing the vitriol they've learned
Out on the streets, with
Whatever rattled on through their brains.
Gone were the heartfelt ballads, of our individuality,
In trash there was unity, anybody could play
Instead of standing out, they faded
Into the background, techno
The millennial yodel
They were willing to do anything to attract a crowd
Whore themselves before satan, only to be tempted
With more money, and vice.
Joseph regained the robe of his nobility
By selling his soul, vowed to give another show,
and rejoin his estranged family back into his fold.
Forgave them, gave them supporting roles, and instruments
To express themselves, even unto their captivity, he sold them
While the rain man stole 1/5 of their gains, and forced them to play
Their young into the role of sex slaves. It was the last show of the tour.
With everybody on the edge of their seat, having paid good money to to see,
And the king up in the balcony, when they struck the flat note, time had run out.
They were being recalled back into the alley, where the backdoor led down into the dark.
Into the underground where demons and black forces of unbelievable proportions were waiting
to escort them to escort them to the final altar to devour their souls and devour their blood.
So, what happened next? You don't want to know.
