Man is not the judge

Fear it takes me whole and eats me to my very soul
yet I plead forgive me as I deserve not thee

eyes filled with tears he stood before grand and mighty highest order of thief


I would beg for your soul and sell everything I own to save you from your hell

would you offer but a cool drink to my parched lips before they took my life

oh you of higher rank and probale cause in eyes of law I before a dawn stand in honor
care not a trial of mokery or of greedy plead save your soul from Gods wrath

would you offer but a soothing word as I am laid in the pit to be consumed by lion
for sport or joy of kin and kinsman pleasure so had

laughter resounded in a court of highest in a land few can recall a outcome
but on a marker in a hill one cross left and one cross right in heaven he sleeps tonight

 Reviews of "Good Thief"
Reviewed on October 6, 2007

Interesting mixture of symbolism and surrealism in the imagery of "Good Thief".
Very impressive subject dealt, rich in contents and poemization... A poetic flower from the Poet's garden.

In admiration,


Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU
