Conversion

beyond a reasonable doubt
of an innocent sinner
lies the stone uncast
against the false inner

by the babbling brook
in an arid wasteland
lies the parched camel
too dead to stand

you can lead a horse to water
but you cant make him drink
you can show a man the truth
but you cant make him think

so how is it that blind men can see
and how is it that deaf men can hear
how is it that a mute can speak
while we are impaired by fear

so step forward you false saint
pick up the stone that is to be cast
and take position, your aim true
but remember we pelt the worst last
