34 : 5/14/98 : The Wind (Imitations of a Divine Parody #3)

When the wind rose up in
The valley of bones
Then the wind rose up
And rattled those bones

And a voice said mortal man
D'you think I'm gonna set these dry bones free
And I said back to that voice
I said ah You know that not me

And then the wind rose
And the wind that's what I feel
And when the wind rose
I said oh lord I know that's real

And the bones rose up with a rattling sound
And the wind rose up and it shook the ground
And I said oh lord that's a fearsome wind
And I said oh Lord make those dry bones spin

And the wind rose up in
The valley of bones
And the Lord said watch those bones live boy
The Lord said nothin's set in stone
And the Lord said now it's your turn boy
