Replying to a comment on:
Christ At The Oscars (Free verse) by Caducus
Pay to sit with crows
See them chew on souls
Watch the auction of faith
Be sold to buy a conscience.
I carried a cross to bear
On a Gethsemane of popcorn
As people gazed and names rolled
And Mel Gibsonâs name left me cold.
On Oscar night will Christ win?
I pray to God Mel thanks him,
And as Jewish actors applaud and smile
I will wipe a tear from my salted phial,
The silver screen has rusted,
And profits made from prophets slayed
From Messiah to mortal entrusted.
