Gideon's Bible |
| Holding on, with both eyes, to things that don’t exist |
| Peering through the cutting wrist, at grand old mother greedy |
| Rolling out the cotton ship, upon the carpet pillow |
| Throttling children callously, a messy day with Clancy |
| Gideon lied and Gideon died |
| The force of China felt |
| Gideon smiled as Gideon died |
| The thought of China held. |
| Rolling out the golden robes and other foreign language |
| Stretching out the verbs and nouns together in the greeting |
| Some that felt the blade often, some deep confused emotion |
| Struck eye first against the wall of China under fire. |
| Gideon lied and Gideon died |
| The force of China felt |
| Gideon smiled as Gideon died |
| The thought of China held. |
