just want to thank God for helping me write, and the opportunity to share.


i went to a funeral for Mardi Gras
this year
i'm giving them up for Lent
Now every time I take communion
i remember
This Man is alive
that's the difference between
christians and cannibals
the meal they eat is dead
their fellowship is twisted
half complete
their man won't come back to life
Friday isn't Good
funerals in lent are unavoidable
and Easter's dawn is dark
