My Jesus Return Day

I unlock the door and They pour inside
Like royalty caught in the rain without an umbrella

10 am drunken Mother aged 45 Years
side by side with 14 year old cracked up pregnant daughter
Looking down upon me, handing mom the family cigarettes
"Dang, you've been here all weekend. Must suck for you."
Silent response....."I have a job. Who sucks now?"

The hungover drunken bum, thumbing his last four dollars
to have me prepare him his only solid meal of the day
Sure to return later with empties in exchange for fulls
Still slurring "Have a happy Easter brother."
Openly replying "Keep On Keepin On."

Afternoon batch arrive in their sunday best
Rubbing their eyes after waking up at the Pew
All Jesus did on Friday was "hang around"
Then we hid the Eggs on Sunday
and Blamed it on a rabbit?

The lights are turned off
They are outside trying to get Gas
Fathers Sisters Clergymen Patrons
The spark is ignited and the Book In my Hands

OPEN WIDE THE GATES OF HELL! THE LOWER HEAVENS BENEATH YOU,
LET THEM SERVE YOU! GOVERN THOSE WHO GOVERN! CAST DOWN SUCH
AS FALL! BRING FORTH THOSE WHO INCREASE, AND DESTROY THE ROTTEN!
NO PLACE, LET IT REMAIN IN ONE NUMBER! ADD AND DIMINISH UNTIL THE
STARS BE NUMBERED! ARISE! MOVE! AND APPEAR BEFORE THE COVENANT
OF HIS MOUTH, WHICH HE HATH SWORN ONTO US IN HIS JUSTICE! OPEN THE
MYSTERIES OF YOUR CREATION, AND MAKE US THE PARTAKERS OF THE
UNDEFILED WISDOM!
