My Jesus has a .45
It never leaves his side
It’s holstered around his purple sash
With bullets sanctified.
My Jesus buys organic
Because he’s really ‘woke’
He doesn’t trust the system, man;
He knows it’s all a joke
My Jesus loves his neighbour
Because his neighbour’s white
He’ll vet the family across the street
To make sure they’re alright
My Jesus teaches yoga
Because mindfulness is key
His classes are relaxing
And completely dogma free
Bring out the candidates!
What do they believe?
With the power of Jesus Christ TM
Who knows what they’ll achieve?
My Jesus is a businessman
You should see how much he earns!
And, as soon as possible,
He’ll release his tax returns
My Jesus is on twitter
And has followers galore
He knows that, with this audience
One meme can change the law
My Jesus is tough on crime
And very strong on defence
He doesn’t like to be P.C
And will cause offense
My Jesus has charisma
that will stop you in your tracks
Behold the Lord’s provision:
a donation from Goldman Sachs.
Bring out the candidates
They’ll teach us how to pray!
With the power of Jesus Christ TM
They’ll know what to say
My Jesus is an outsider
He’ll bring real change
So watch out, establishment!
You’re in the firing range!
My Jesus is experienced
And knows how to play the game
Voting for Him is a Big Step Forward;
Different, and the same
Who would Jesus vote for?
I think its plain to see
There was many a polling booth
In ancient Galilee.
This is fantastic!
Thank you! The general sentiments behind this poem had been bubbling away in my mind for a while, I’m glad I found a way to express them 🙂
And you expressed them very well. I’ve been looking for a way to express similar sentiments, but haven’t arrived at anything I like. Good work!
I’m sure you’ll find something, and I look forward to when you do.
Gold!! You put words to many a half formed idea in my head.
