Thirty
pieces of silver
If
you believe the stories
If
you believe one red headed disciple can bring down the world
Mary
was also a disciple
Quite
possibly the one closest to the fold
Of
course she gets less press because of the blood running out from between her
angelic thighs
Get
ready to bury one more civilization under newspaper clippings and the eyes of
the dead
The
Nazi’s made lampshades out of Jews’ skin because they had nothing better to do
with their spoiled time and loved the unclouded light pouring from a victim’s
undeniable suffering
They
called them Concentration Camps which was a bold faced lie. Leave it to the
Germans to fill up mass graves with irony alongside the bodies
I’m
not writing this to shock anyone and doubt anyone is even bothering to read it
The
cave drawings must be sketched upon the walls even if no one is paying
attention and Ben Carson decimates the projects because poverty is a choice
according to his out to lunch brain
I’m
no prophet and refuse to cover myself in excrement and stand in the center of
town yammering on about this or that coming apocalypse
We
had it coming just like every empire before it that believes it was too good to
fail and too good to take care of its less fortunate
Don’t
get me started on the hypocrisy of Christian Family Values and how every
serpent believes fervently that they are God’s favorite
We
all have a little or a lot of the Devil inside of us and until we start to
accept this truth as self-evident we’ll continue to fail like the braying
donkeys we’ve always been
