tell it to me twice

— Seven Stanzas —
— Ten Swords —

tell it to me twice.
look me squarely in the eyes.
tell it to me twice.

—

tell it to you twice.
I'll switch the middle script and
tell it to you twice.

—

tell it to me twice.
tell me truth and damn the lies.
tell it to me twice.

which is the Word of God.

sell your cloak and buy one.

As servants of God
we commend ourselves in every way,
with weapons of righteousness
in right hand and in left.

and a sword will pierce your own soul too.

will die by the sword.
