so why did Jesus cry out on the cross?
was he lost?
double-crossed?
finally failed
by the father he’d trailed
as the one true god who always prevail’d?
the beard in the sky
the good time guy
the holy moly hero on high
CEO
of everything below
the man who made everything – yea – even the iron
they forged into nails to crucify ‘im

jeez – thanks dad
my bad
I thought for a second you were on my side
I’d give you the finger but my hands are tied
