Kristen de Kline # 192 The day you left

the day you left

somebody chucked a flower pot
through the neighbour’s front window
when I got off the train at Parliament
smiling Christians handed out free Easter eggs
with a personal message from Jesus
a stolen Merc with headlights on full beam
veered into the wrong driveway
and left a dent on the roller door
you messaged me that you were dancing with wolves
and your ex-girlfriend was in a new porno movie
on the midnight train I lost my wallet
and a lot more     but     we won't go there
I swept up the pieces of glass
and wrapped them in the Chemist Warehouse catalogue
Eternity and CK One going cheap

the day you left

  1. You don't get a 'personal message from Jesus'too often. I knew that catalogue had a greater purpose.

    1. HI James, that's what I thought - Jesus rarely gives personal messages but... I did bring it home (it was attached to the free Easter egg) so happy to pass the message onto you if you're in need of advice from Jesus lol!
