Plastic Jesus
The Lethe magic of
a blue spandex swirl
of bicycle shorts
Clothes the articles
Of her Declaration of Independence
From the torrential male reign
Of hurricane force designs
On her surrogate womb
For your thermonuclear embryos
Spun into mossy opium dream
Begat by prophetic voices yearning to be heard
By cloven tongued evangelists of Golgotha
Whose fire and brimstone manikins
Speak like cyborgs on the path to celestial war
High on mushroom clouds
With a bikini atoll rapture
For a second coming
Of hydrogen gamete fusion bombs
Bursting like the rocket’s red glare
For the love of Jesus

Holy cow!
The world can be a dark place.
Excellent post, my friend.
Thank you so much, my friend. Glad this left a strong impression with you. 🙂

While perusing past comments on some of my works, I saw yours on my piece, “Road Trip,” and thought I needed to get to know you. I moved to the first piece you posted since most of us want to start strong, and boy was I right. This is outstanding, John, and I wish more people could see it. A killer piece, for sure.
Hey there, sorry I am just getting to read this wonderful comment on my poem. I was out of town for a couple of weeks. Indeed this is one of my most explosive poems. Very glad you enjoyed it. Thanks so much for visiting this piece. Really means the world to me.
