The Gospel According...

The Gospel According to St Vitus
is synaptic, provoking
jerks and tics verbal
in this poor sinner.

Is synaptic provoking
insulting to the brain
in this poor sinner?
Voices are legion,

insulting to the brain.
More than the chemicals -
voices are legion
claiming they work.

More than the chemicals,
the white angels are
claiming they work
- are dangerous helpers.

The white angels are
floating beside me:
are dangerous helpers
sitting at my table?

Floating beside me,
what I need right now
sitting at my table
is the devil's advocate.

What I need right now
is to leave this place.
Is the devil's advocate
coming with me?
