'It's Good Enough for Me': My Best 'Old Time Religion' Verses
Back in the Paganolithic Era, writing "Old Time Religion" verses was something of a pagan cottage industry, and I certainly wrote my share. Of those that I can remember (or will admit to), here are the best.
For what they're worth.
There's my favorite Cretan goddess
in her stylish see-through bodice.
No, she isn't very modest,
but she's good enough for me.
Let us sing the praise of Horus
as our fathers did before us:
we're the New Egyptian Chorus.
(And that's good enough for me!)
Let us sing the praise of Lilith,
for she doeth what she willeth.
When she willeth, Lilith killeth,
which is good enough for me.
We will gather in our saunas,
when the spirit comes upon us,
to perform the rites of Faunus,
and that's good enough for me.
Says my mom: "This witchcraft's looney,
and this pagan stuff is gooney,
but at least he's not a Mooney,
so that's good enough for me."
