Artist of Escape...
by Gary Horn

Step right up now, ladies, gents!
See him in this Grand Event!
Decked out in silk hat and cape.
The Artist of Escape!

There's no felling he can't flee,
No thought he is forced to see.
Hair will stand stiff on your nape!
The Artist of Escape!

Watch him run from God's command,
Sprinting from His Loving Hand.
Even Jonah's mouth would gape!
The Artist of Escape!

Artist though he seems to be,
Doomed to constant failure, he.
God's as close as skin on grape!
From Love you can't escape!

(1996/9/1)
