ROCKS FROM BEHIND THE CROSS
-by Neo Blaqness
Someone said
look there’s Jesus
see Him up there
on that cross
while the world
does what it pleases
He died so that sinners
won’t be lost
I turned back to my work
he yelled
did you hear what I said
sounding like a jerk
he smirked then smacked me
cross my head
I turned around to deck him
but I thought I saw the boss
besides his sorry ass
went running
hiding back behind that cross
back there singing
Jesus loves me
and how imma sinner man
as though the rest of us
forgot how triflin
his ass has been
as often is the case
with backstabbers
who find religious cause
trading in their worldly daggers
to throw rocks
from behind the cross
