MANY YEARS AGO I READ SOME WORDS PENNED BY F. BUECHNER. I wrote these words in the front of my Bible. I have studied these words many times. I make an offering of these words to you.

THE SKELETON IS YOU!

F. BUECHNER:

OF THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS ANGER IS POSSIBILLY THE MOST FUN.

TO LICK YOUR WOUNDS,

TO SMACK YOUR LIPS OVER GRIEVANCES LONG PAST,

TO ROLL OVER YOUR TONGUE THE PROSPECT OF

BITTER CONFRONTATION STILL TO COME,

TO SAVOR TO THE LAST TOOTHSOME MORSEL

THE PAIN YOU ARE GIVEN.

AND THE PAIN YOU ARE GIVING BACK

IN MANY WAYS IT IS A FEAST FIT FOR THE KING.

THE CHIEF DRAW BACK IS WHAT YOU ARE WOLFING

DOWN IS YOURSELF.

THE SKELETON IS YOU!
