Fear and trembling
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
What for? Are these notes you are sending,
Are they for you,
Or me? Tell-
Of joy
To
All
Who are
Your sheep, not,
Condescending.
Will that really
Set me free?
The truth
Is
There
For all
Who can find
A little here,
A little there,
To open
The eyes
Of
The
Blind.
Some may say,
It isn't fair,
His sheep hear his voice. Now I am rambling.
The truth I say
Only one way
With fear
And
Understanding.
