The Leper Play - Enthral

Father;

Why hast Thou forsaken me?

Here I Weep in gracious woe

Under your Promised Heaven

In this Season of Darkness

Where the Blind leads the Way

To a Scorned Idol I must Confess

Your Prophets were they Deceivers

Preachers of a Forgotten Faith?

They all fell Bloodied unto the Earth

With their Hands Covering their Eyes from the Masses

Can you Remember the Ashes, mingled with dust

That once was mentioned with names by a Thousand Tongues?

Did they se behind the veils that hid your Dying Masks?

Did they se the tears Drying on our Faces

That for far to long has Sheltered

The Atrocities of the Human mind?

This Pathetic Sight of Children

Starving on their hopes

Clinging to the Naked Body of their Mother

Whipped to the Ground…

O’Lord what hast thou given us?

For our Sights has grown dim…

You created this mockery called Human!

Too weak to Crawl — Too proud to Fall

Beneath all Scarlet Tragedies

Lies the Hidden Strength of Man but still,

Blinded by the Eyes of Confusion…
