#1550 - day God died

 

1550

5.89

29.iii.24

day God died

for godsbother

 

radioactive heart glow

 

you’d think rejoicing –

a liberation

 

so many crucified

just one god died

 

is a fish is a lamb is the way

is the light

is the water into wine

 

holiday

 

sad God died day

not a celebration

 

the madness in those eyes

 

it’s poor boy got it

and the wars begin

 

it’s heaven after

just knock

 

heads bow

to cease thought here

 

who’ll carry the cross?

it’s quite a weight

 

who hid the eggs?

 

who’s a bunny?

who’s mummy’s purest of the lot?

 

may lightning strike me

his truth, his blood

it’s a boy thing

 

cheap chocolate, hollow

all inside

compounded of a mystery

 

 

we had to be saved from ourselves

 

the wish of death this is

no party

 

day of just fish

and if no fish

it will be chips

 

but salt at least

the sea of tears

 

it’s telling the devil what God said

why bother?

 

how dull these theses

nailed up over again

 

they’re sticking the great iron pins in again

butterfly specimen of human this is

 

you’d think they’d ring the freedom bells

for crawling off the wheel

 

you’d think

but thought is not required

 

but died to make the grind eternal

 

blame someone

blame the woman

blame a snake

 

collect your thirty pieces

go hang

 

from a tree

sign flashing like neon

 

there’s a pile to burn

the heretics!

 

world rolls this around

 

it happens again

it’s still happening

 

there was a word

and with and was

 

here’s some righteous trouble

 

you’d think the eagle would leave off with the liver

you’d think we’d have fire and light

 

you’d think we might speak freely now

 

died to live again

 

the one who never laughed

 

it’s so my Bible begins
