The Parable of the Two-Toned Bible
Here I sit in this bag,
As he carries me

What I know would make me fat
Yet I am skinny

I help him out with his life,
For he cannot see

It seems like I am too complex,
Since he can't perceive

I want to spend time with this man,
So true friends we can be

But it never seems to happen-
He never has time free

Oh I ache to tell him how,
To know and to perceive

If only he would give me time,
Then he could read me

But instead he never comes,
Oh Love, how can it be?

If only he would ask,
Then he just might see

If only he would know,
Then he'd be peacefully

If only, if only
Is what it seems to be

I have to go now, Love-
He said he's coming, to see me.

So Author, I ask You now,
Please let him read, and see…
