Luke 7:36-7:50
I wonder if he was really like that–
a kind man, a learned man,
a free man.
I wonder if he really told
that pretentious douche-bag Simon
to check himself.
I can't say the Apostle's Creed
for fear that the air would split
open like the Red Sea,
and otherworldly hands
would snap my spine over it's knee
for being a fucking liar.
So, I can't follow Jesus the Christ.
But that man, Luke's man,
he smells of authenticity
and tears. I could follow him.
