  • Leviticus, Chapter 15. from the Old Testament
    When any man hath an issue out of his flesh.
    Because of that issue he is unclean.
    Every bed whereon he lieth is unclean
    and everything whereon he sitteth, unclean.
    And whosoever toucheth his bed shall be unclean,
    And he that sitteth whereon he sat shall be unclean.
    And he that toucheth
    the flesh of the unclean
    Becomes unclean.
    And he that be spat on by him unclean
    Becomes unclean.
    And whosoever toucheth anything under him
    shall be unclean.
    And he that beareth any of those things
    shall be unclean.
    And what saddle soever he rideth upon is unclean
    And the vessel of earth that he toucheth, unclean.
    And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him,
    he is unclean.
    Every garment, every skin whereon is the seed, unclean.
    And the woman with whom this man shall lie
    shall be unclean.
    And whosoever toucheth her will be unclean.
    This is the law of the plague:
    to teach when it is clean and when it is unclean.
    And the priest shall look upon the plague
    for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot.
    And the priest shall shut up he that hath the plague.
    He shall carry them forth to a place unclean.
    He shall separate them in their uncleaness.
    This is the law of the plague:
    To teach when it is clean and when it is unclean.
    excerpt from Psalm 22
    Many bulls compass me, Lord
    Strong bulls of Baashah do beset me round.
    They gape me with their mouths
    as a ravening and a roaring lion.
    But thou, O Lord, shall bring them down.
    Thou shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction
    greedy and deceitful men shall be exposed as vermin
    And their days as iniquity.
    excerpt from Psalms 58 and 59,
    and text by Diamanda Galas
    Deliver me from mine enemies, O My God
    Deliver me from the workers of iniquity
    and save me from bloody men.
    For lo, they lie in wait for my soul
    The mighty are gathered against me
    not for my transgressions, not for my sin, O Lord
    They run and prepare themselves without my fault
    Awake to help me and behold:
    Swords are in their lips, for who, say they, doth hear.
    But thou, O Lord, shall laugh at them
    The God of my mercy shall let me see my desire
    upon mine enemies
    And at evening, let them make a noise like a dog.
    and go around about the city
    Let them walk up and down for meat
    and grudge if they be not satisfied.
    Break out the great teeth of the young lions,
    Oh My God,
    and when they laugh at the trial of the innocent
    Let them be cut as in pieces!
    Bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
    text by Diamanda Galas
    The Devil is an impotent man
    He says it nice and plays himself off as the friend.
    He tries to make you uncertain
    so your hands shake
    and then he tells you you're insane
    when you call him by his rightful name:
    Impotent homophobe and coward!
    So you will miss when you aim at this evil man
    who cannot get it up
    except
    in the T.V. public operating room
    of another man's misfortune!
