*Started as a haibun attempt and became..this.
They Found Jesus
They found Jesus earlier today. He was nailed to a cardboard cross bearing a sloppy “will sing for beer” slogan in front of a Palm Springs pawnshop. Before they trespassed him, he told one of the officers,
“You know, I haven’t been listening when people call up to me all anxious; they avoid me on the sidewalk, they don’t hear my songs. The world has gone crazy looking for me and I haven’t been hiding.”
Jesus musing
slumped in an alley
dying for all sin
the subaltern hymn
