When Messiah comes

and Righteousness in clouds

fumigates the lice on my children

and fills their bellies,

and Heaven is lowered on silvery wire

crushing Fear of the Stranger

into a Patty of Peace,

and Justice floods every dungeon

floating free the Innocent

and restoring the Earth,

then give Messiah a message for me:

Tell Him I couldn’t wait

so I started without Him.
