((( KING OF THE DELTA BLUES )))




The myth of Robert Johnson selling his soul to the devil,

at a crossroads in Mississippi in order to become

King of the Delta Blues

is quite a powerful one!





You would think God would say:

Hey, you don't have to sell your soul

just give your soul to me and

I'll do the job even better!


No such luck, right?



Seems to me,

AND I COULD BE WRONG,

but it seems to me if God was doing His 'job' right

(pun intended)

NOBODY would ever consider

selling his or her soul


It's because God is APPARENTLY

too busy to give a shit

that people sell their souls to the devil


I may get in trouble for writing this, but I say

it's to God's shame that ANYONE would even consider

selling their souls to the devil

I say it's a sign that God's creation deserves more

than to be so bereft of God's blessings

they would ever even consider

doing such a thing


Then again if God was doing His job right

Satan would be out of a job

and on unemployment

Considering how long Satan had been working

Maybe God just doesn't want to pay out the money



Well, I would hope that at the very least

Robert Johnson finally has a steady gig

playing the blues in hell

What better place to play the blues, right?
