Alan Hickman - Free Will

And God so loved the world
That he gave his only Son
To be cursed and spat upon
Beaten and clubbed
And god knows what all
They get up to
In those filthy Mideast jails

My student (on the other hand)
So loved his woman
That he vaulted her to heights
Of dizzy solecism
Planting her feet-first
On a 'petal stool'
In place of worship

Small wonder
Where I pledge my tithes!
