Affirmations insistent,
in truth make us resistant,
because love employs no force,
so why then cry ourselves hoarse?
Our heart, not mind, does capture,
thunder of bliss borne rapture.
To perform a true soul scan,
do we need a middleman?
Why was I a puppet?
For my parents views,
For their animosity,
To my teachers’ dues.
They even exposed hatred,
To the Jews cultural,
Not with understanding,
Of things traditional.
They asked me if I wished to,
Sing secular songs in music,
Along with the class,
‘Cos I would wear a different tunic.
But I just went quiet,
And didn’t really answer,
Because singing was just that best,
And made me into a prancer.
Morality is morality, there's no ifs
Or buts about it, either you obey
Rules or you throw them aside.
Always for each transgression
Lies a matching retribution.
For every seed that you sow
Is a grain waiting for reaping,
Be it a good one or otherwise.
Exceptions are not options,
Row your boat...or you sink.
