the God Cage
November 7, 2007
We frame God
in a cage of words
like a monkey
begging for coins.

Brainwashed –
water hose in my mouth
baptized from inside out
Viva Las Vatican
September 13, 2007
I was taught
only Catholics are saved.
I would worry
Elvis might burn in hell.
I did pray
for his conversion.
The Antichrist Church Bazaar
August 4, 2007
Boys bet dollars at the wheel –
detached from any holy values.
Greed and thrill keep their interest
as calculated.
The public address blares
a Michael Jackson crotch clutching song.
It can be heard inside the empty church.
Grandmothers swill down halushki with butter.
Young girls strut about with killer legs,
blowing off the uncool.
poor God – so misunderstood
May 22, 2007
poor God –
always an excuse
for war,
always an excuse
for wealth.
As-Salamu Alaykum
May 10, 2007
the holiest place
is a handshake
dialogical

Jerusalem –
owned by no one
here for all
You do no service to the past
May 5, 2007
You do no service to the past
by obsessing on it –
by wailing and crying forever…
To define everything by “then”
robs the past of its redemption.
we are not called to adoration
May 3, 2007
(BLASPHEMY!)
we are called to act in fellowship.
(it is a SIN to miss the ceremonies!)
we are asked to think beyond our selves –
(the only way to save your sorry ass is to OBEY!)
beyond sex and possessions beyond security and agenda.
(the most important thing is to avoid HELL!)
we are asked to dive in and swim upstream,
(keep your nose in the BOOK!)
living our lives to serve others …
