406
beyond good and evil 
we're all
getting ready to bury God 
this is where
praying will get you 
we're lifting
the frail bones down 
did anyone
ever live this long before?
we're bearing
the pall 
we're
standing taut for the sermon
Jesus, it
just goes on 
and the
singing is worse
it's the same
handful of earth 
we're
dropping on that
lid 
this whole
Earth was ash to begin 
now here we
go again
God's dead 
but won't be
buried, not quite
it's past
sadness this thing 
goes on and
on 
and wait, is
that rigor mortis 
or sit-ups
after a nap?
thought we
had Him done and dusted 
then he does
a Beetlejuice 
stagey, but
there seems to be a puff of breath 
then no, a
doubt creeps in
does it seem
like eternity to you? 
 
Not when I can keep reading this stuff!
ReplyDeleteno no sir, even though I agree it goes on and on .... but not forever!
