The Leper

Louder and louder sthe black gates of hell
I woke with a start like a drunk in a cell
The chewing of wheels on the hot sandy ground
Came to a stop as my body was found
One must suffer from absolute blindness
To freely pour the milk of human kindness
A malformed albino layed me in a seat
His face swelled with tumors, his skin like rank meat
He drove in silence as I lay in the back
Socorro was waiting down a long dusty track
One must suffer from absolute blindness
To freely pour the milk of human kindness
He fed and clothed me and I slept for a day
I woke before dawn without much to say
My head started reeling and I felt cold and sick
So found where he was sleeping and I beat him with a brick
One must suffer from absolute blindness
To freely pour the milk of human kindness
I was hard up for cash, so I looted his shack
Stuffing my pockets as he wept on his back
My visions had shown me who I was to see
A healer named Maycomb out in Trinity
