Now heres a poem to hopefully set all you over indulgent sinners onto the right path for 2004 ha ha..This colourful moralistic poem filled with self guilt written in the 1890's is surely very much the manifestation of the repressive religious morality of the late Victorian era. Aaaargh yes !!! The perils of drink and lust!!!. But what a way to go !!! ha ha...

Heres the link to the page where you can listen online to this classic poem set to music...

The Devil Stirs

The devil stirs without rest,
And around me floats like noxious air and thin
I breath this posion air that scolds my breast
And fills me with desires of monstrous sin
Knowing my love of art
He somestimes takes the form of supple girls supremely fair
And with a wily canting lie he makes
My heated lips his shameful potions makes me share
Then far he leads me from the sight of God
Crushed with fatigue to where no man has trod
To the vague barren plains where silence sounds
And hurls into my face his foul construction
Of slimey clothes and gaping putrid wounds
And all the bleeding harness of destruction.
