God said to Abraham, “kill your son,
your beloved, you know the one;
take out your bloody knife
and sacrifice his life.”
So Abe obeyed without a question.
your beloved, you know the one;
take out your bloody knife
and sacrifice his life.”
So Abe obeyed without a question.
But good God, and good grief, and God damn!
What the hell’s wrong with you, Abraham?
To follow as if blind
a request so unkind?
You’re lucky God provided a ram.
What the hell’s wrong with you, Abraham?
