x-ray

don't be fooled by appearances

it only shows what the world already knows

don't rely on the physical evidence

of what the x-ray pictures show

because inside every straight upright citizen a tormented

emotionally impaired psychologically damaged personality resides

and beside every crooked man stands an angel with wings

and the spirit can do truly wondrous things

as i watch the hump-backed man hobble down the high street

i say a silent prayer for myself

i was taken to the local doctor

for a consultation about my physical health

i heard him ask about my family - history

you see
