Heavens Gate
franticly, Bo cried aloud
the sheep are all astray
never fear,now Doe is here
and he will lead the way
we strayed because of hunger
and that hunger dreadful deep
lo' the master made them applesause
and bade them all to sleep
then lovingly he once again-
advised them never fear
and as they soundly slept
he gently whispered to each ear:
halle bopp,diddy wop
pass along the word
conductor's shouting "all aboard"
the magic whirlybird
god speed.
this was written
years ago about
the heavens gate tragedy
recently found it
cleaning out a drawer
hope you enjoy.
