Harold Pinter on 'Paradise Lost'
Hallelujah!
Satan got slung the fuck out of Heaven.
We can’t have him giving people fruit, can we?
Feeding the starving
Without even trying to turn a profit is obscene.
And so was asking questions
About how that fascist bully boy God runs things,
Isn’t that right, Mr Milton?
So yes, you can just fuck off, Satan.
Spend eternity in the agonies of Tartarus.
That’ll teach you to try and think for yourself.
I bet that moron Bush
And that loathsome toad Blair would approve,
But it makes me sick to my fucking guts, chum.
Hallelujah.
Praise the Lord for all good things.
