commercial jesus brought to you by
crystal souls dash and flash
turn the golden calf into cash
the blessed
imagine a direct heavenly connection
born again, and again, and again
teleo-theologians
edited the new testament tossing out
the sermon on the mount
the good samaritan
all that stuff about peace and love
insisting on a need for greed
superior
inferiority spotters with raised arms and voices scream
repent!
invest!
you too can be a chosen one
many are called
but few will reap true monetary rewards
meanwhile jesus
wearing a t-shirt
jeans and sandals appeared today
but
he was swiftly rejected by followers —
corporate policy requires a business suit
additionally
his knapsack and paperback new testament
were an affront to the faithful
in their deeply cushioned seats
as well as viewers at home
surpassing judas
it has been demonstrated
that an initial investment in betrayal
can return a profit that can lead to earthly and “heavenly” rewards
