The Room

*

In a house, on a hill

as day's light has had it's fill

a word is said in an empty room.

A letter is placed upon a tomb.

A hand is held against a womb.

A word like lightning is said.

Thunder rolls its accusations

over the newly found dead.

And Jesus was a savior

who brought new wisdom to the land.

But the people were hard of hearing

and rulers were hard of hand.

Winter's Celebration should be a time

of forgiving.

A time to separate the dead

from the living.

But he is named Man of the Year.

This insect the world has grown to fear.

This insect that has spoiled so much grain.

This insect that has sold our soles for own his gain.

And Jesus was a savior

who brought a new wisdom to the land.

But the people were hard of hearing

and the rulers were hard of hand.
