The Twins - James Stevens

[Larry Robinson]

The Twins


 Good and bad are in my heart,

But I cannot tell to you

- For they never are apart -

Which is better of the two.

I am this! I am the other!

And the devil is my brother!

But my father He is God!

And my mother is the Sod!

I am safe enough, you see,

Owing to my pedigree.

So I shelter love and hate

Like twin brothers in a nest;

Lest I find, when it's too late,

That the other was the best.
