Jesus on Mike Pence. A poem by Winlar

 1

I talked to Jesus the other day and he wanted to get things straight

He’d been quiet a long time and he was kind of irate

He didn’t want to be too crass did not want to be rude

But he’d held his tongue for 2000 years,and that messes with a dude

What made him break his silence, the straw that broke his back

Was a book come out written by an old political hack

A book entitled unironically “So Help Me God”

Authored by Mike Pence, which put JC at odds

And reading drafts of it, well it made J want to vomit

And he broke his big millennials-long silence just to comment

And he told me in no uncertain words, bold and intense

“I didn’t die on the cross for motherfuckers like Mike Pence!”

If you never met Jesus, well, you really outta

He’s the only guy I’ve ever met can get drunk drinkin’ water

We sat down at the restaurant and ordered the bread and fishes

The waiter said they were out, but somehow rustled up some dishes

Then we sat down with 11 other friends and dined 

And Jesus quite profanely and beatifically opined

He said “I said love immigrants!” and Pence’s policies

All hate on immigrants. Immigrants like… me!!! 

This guy, he abetted putting imm’grant kids in cages

For him to claim he’s on my side, well that is just outrageous

You can’t be pro Jesus Christ and anti-immigrants

I didn’t die on the cross for motherfuckers like Mike Pence

I didn’t spill blood on the cross hour after painful hour

All for rich white plutocrats to justify their power

I do not like this asshole, I do not like this dude

Who uses me to justify his corporate-suck-itude

He uses my name in vain and says he’s the chosen one

But he has a Pontius Pilate vibe if ever there was one

The way he separates Moms from children at the borders

And ducks behind excuses like “I vaz just following orders!”

You might be surprised that I’m bein’ so blunt, but blimey

If some folks get upset,well, what they gon’ do? Crucify me?

It’s time for the real Christians to come out and talk some sense

I didn’t die on the cross for motherfuckers like Mike Pence
