Listening to this choir....makes we want to cry
It send me back in memories
Of a life I can't describe
Close my eyes and not move a muscle and
There is light pouring in my mind
There, great columns with golden marble curls unfolding from the tops
An Angel's grace may touch the space
Glorious, resplendent flight to horizon
Then, a cross on fire doused by holy water and
A horse beats faster than the air it rides upon
Vision came about and my throat now parched
All I want to do is sleep and
I love you sacred smile
Oh Bethlehem of Noblest Cities, The Gesualdo Six

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
