I Stood

I stood before honesty
And told a lie
I stood before death
And refused to die

I stood before happiness
And could not smile
I stood before joyfulness
And was pretty vile

I stood before luminosity
And was very dark
I stood before decency
And made a nasty remark

I stood before gracefulness
And stubbed my toe
I stood before Saint Peter
He just said no
