Sunday School begins when all hope has left.
We begin here from the last part: Paint It Black.
We should have simply run away. That would have been the best thing;
safety-wise.
The Glinty was gone, baby gone.
We should have lit-out like he did.
But do you know, you never leave a man behind. A promise is a promise, baby.
Let’s go to school, shall we?

That Tellesco dude pinned the angry punk in a half-nelson
and pressed his face down into the desert sand.
Ouch.
Tellesco struggled and re-adjusted his grips, but soon
enough, that fat bastard he held down in a sleeper began to awaken in a rage.
The angry punk opened his left eye and he looked up at his
attacker. His other eye was smashed down in the dirt, and this didn’t feel all
that good to him.
He growled.
He pushed at the ground.
His temper made him feel hot and sweaty.
And dirty.
He usually enjoyed those sorts of things, but this time he
didn’t.
He was supposed to be in control.
He began to rise.
RRRRRRRGH
That was the sound that the ground made beneath them both. We could hear it and we could feel it in the
heels of our boots.
Tellesco began to weep.

There we were my friend, left behind by that Glinty dude.
It didn’t look good for anyone who might engage. What would you have done?
Gawdayam, might as well go out with a bang, isn’t that
right? We damned punks ran to help out
the only one who faced his fear.
He was one huge angry punk, and he seemed to grow bigger
with each breath he took. He got up on
his knees just when I dove at him. Big Bryan
followed me, and when the huge bastard knocked me back, I had the wind knocked
out of me. Bryan
pulled me away and helped me catch my breath again.
But Joey, the Lion Man, well he leapt up and grabbed onto
Fat Jerry’s big melon.
That was enough for me.
I couldn’t catch my breath, but I got to my feet and charged at the
Punk, and Tellesco fell away into the dirt.
He sat back up and wiped his eyes. He couldn’t stop crying.
He looked over at us and said, “Sorry guys! I mean…”
Then his eyes got big, with tears streaming down from
them. He looked over us all there
fighting with the angry punk, and he said, “There is a blue fire coming!”
Do you know my friend, The Glinty did not abandon us. He figured that we could fend for ourselves
in this moment, and he was correct.
What we didn’t know was this:
He had gone to collect them blue folks.
It was their time to shine.
This was the nexus of building an army.
We had no clue about that, but it couldn’t be helped. It was the natural course of events, do you
see?
When a man is left with nothing, only then will he find out
what he has inside. This is why you must
accept each challenge that comes your way.
You may surprise yourself.
You may find that you have a limitless wealth of strength, built from
the ore of what is true.
It simply takes the furnace to burn away the floss, the
flotsam, the jetsam, and the fluff.
Forget about showing off. Try to
find your mettle.
God Help You.
God Help Us All.
