When You Do A Good Turn You

I Recovered My Infant Judaism, But In A Reformist Version.

I Didn't Want To Be On The Losing Side. I Was Fed Up With Jewish Weakness, Timidity And Fear. I Didn't Want Any More Jewish Sentimentality And Jewish Suffering. I Was Sickened By Our Sad Songs.

It Was Admitted By The Early Rabbis That The Sectarians Could Be As Full Of Good Works As Eggs Were Full Of Meat.

I Was Certainly Open For Something Being On The Edge Of A Nervous Breakdown, Perplexed By My Own Sexuality. I Was Gay.

I Learnt Pity, Sympathy, And What It Was Like To Be At The Other End Of The Stick. Such Lessons Can't Be Learnt In Lecture Halls.
