The Cleaner

The Cleaner2008



William Banks:
People do a whole lot of things in the name of love, more than I ever thought possible. When we first made this deal, you and me. I remember thinking about that- about love. I never really felt it, even when it was offered to me because I knew I didn't deserve it, so I could never understand it. A pastor I know, one of the better ones, he pointed me toward a verse in the old testament. Went something like this- There are three things that amaze me. No, four things that I'll never understand. The way of an eagle in the sky, the way of a serpent on a rock, the way of a ship at sea, and the way a man loves a woman. And once I got clean I understood all of them. The eagle, the ship, even the man and the woman. But what I knew best. What I knew from my gut was the way of that serpent and how he can destroy the most beautiful love of all.
