Reverend Barry Randolph was surprised when Jesus disappeared,
Was Jesus rooting for Detroit's hometown team?
-- his image oversaw Grand Boulevard,
North of Jefferson Ave., across Belle Isle, in Detroit,
After all the Red Wings were playing the Penguins for the Stanley Cup Finals?
(It was almost like being there on Good Friday but yesterday was a bad Wednesday,)
Or did Jesus want to congratulate Obama for his winning enough delegates,
On Good Tuesday, to beat Hillary?
The Thieves thought Jesus was made a copper;
His image was made plaster instead.
The thieves had stolen copper pipe and gutters before,
For the money is too good for the price of the metals,
And they work too little to make a little “bread”.
This is horrible as it seem to be.
For plaster they couldn’t get 30 pieces of copper let alone 30 pieces of silver or platinum,
No matter what Jesus is made off,
He will remember the thieves that stole Him.
I would not to be one of them,
For Judas is going to have some company.
