[創作] As say those pious men in shaking tone
As say those pious men in shaking tone,
That sinners pay for what they've done in Hell.
The rack sets to strip them of flesh and bone;
Into dark Fire the bare souls fall as well.
Or sing those pious men in soaring glee:
The innocent rejoices in Paradise,
And praises the Almighty who sets them free,
For they've paid in life the good and kind price.
So a thief who falters for fear of Fire,
And a fiend who repents for joys in Heaven
Are deemed as good men for we to aspire!
What convenient belief! What smart bargain!
I say I stand on my sole and sheer heart,
Not Heaven nor Hell---such fictional art!
