No title for this one yet, it's just a stray dog... uuuh, a stray idea! One day I was thinking about books etc. with and without sequels, the strange thought occured to me that some stories are so complete in themselves, you might as well try writing a sequel to the Bible!
The thought stuck - "writing a sequel to the Bible"? A while later I had come up with a chorus, and the next week (?) the first verse came filtering through the ether, or whatever it is these things do... [The second verse came a couple of years later!] For some obscure reason, the first part of the verse scans with "Get Back". The rest does not.
Jerry was a writer churning out the lighter kind of entertainment swill just to make some money Everything was phony synthesized and cheap, but still - Everybody said "He's gonna make it some day" and goodness have mercy, they were right! I can still remember when he called me to say: "Oh my brother, I have seen the light! I have got a wonderful idea! I'll be famous, just you wait and see!" Jerry Lee Jameson from Banbury Cross is writing a sequel to the Bible on a typer he's borrowed from Jennifer's boss Goodness knows who will sue him for libel There's gonna be some controversy and people who wish Jerry Jameson to Hell But Jerry hopes the Lord will have mercy Not to mention a sense for his humour as well! Jerry's spinning stories wild, and furthermore he's also putting them in rhyme (The) critics and the readers and religious leaders wonder if he'll stop in time Jerry keeps assuring me whenever we meet everything is going just as planned Everybody's going to be swept off their feet He is certain that he will be banned! If we can believe in his tips it's gonna be an apocalypse!

(interlude) Jerry keeps on writing Isn't it exciting? I know he will enrapture you with the final chapter!

[For those who didn't know: Banbury is a town in Oxfordshire, probably best know to the average reader (outside Oxfordshire anyway) from the nursery rhyme
Jerry Lee Jameson is just one of those names that appear out of nowhere and
have a nice sound. For all I know there may actually be a real J. L.
Jameson living in Banbury, maybe even near one of the crosses!
As for who Jennifer is, that will have to wait until someone writes a few
more verses, or a novel or something (or a sequel to the Bible...?)]
