David DeSantis - *The Ten Commandments

Don’t ever have
sex with strangers
is what
a bird
once told me.

Thirty strangers
later i find,
something that
works for me.

Don’t ever kill,
the bird sang,
unless to live,
I suppose is alright.

In killing I
find no thrill.
Although,
I stepped
on a worm today.

Don’t ever cheat,
on your spouse.
its not right
to play that game.

What if your spouse,
Is cheating on you?
I’d rather
screw
than play
that game.

Do not lie
it's not allright,
And is that
what Jesus would do?

If Jesus is
What your looking for,
To find him
I think,
you’d be lying too.

Don’t fantasize,
About that girl
Her skirt is short
for comfort.

She’s a dirty whore
This we can see,
But I can
give her
comfort.

Don’t ever worship
another bird,
Or build a statue,
Of a Robin.

It’s true that I,
find all birds,
Really quite
intrusive.

And if you should
find a lie.
Send it back
From where
it came,

Wouldn't it be,
nicer to lie?
We can’t
all come from
where I came.

Do not drive
your neighbor’s car
And his wife,
She shares his name

If a neighbor,
had something to take,
To share is very,
neighborly.

Just please
don’t,
have sex with strangers,
It’s quite easy
To catch a
disease.

On this
The bird
and I agreed.
Fire, works
Quite
forcefully.
