The Gospel According To Some Doofus Poet

I like the idea that there was a caveman

Who coincidentally looked like Jesus

And when Jesus’s body was hidden away

The caveman came out just to please us

And seeing society for the first time

He didn’t know what else to do

So he used his caveman magic

And up into heaven he flew.

Meanwhile, actual Jesus

Woke up after three days or so

But everyone said he’d already ascended

And, to heaven, he’d no need to go

So he went back to being a carpenter

And made many beautiful shims

And sent every customer home with a smile

And said many, “Nope, I just look like him”s.

Baptist Easter

Two-Thousand Twenty-Five years ago

Judas told Jesus “YOLO”

But Jesus, lacking any fear

Said “Judas, my brudda, holdeth my beer.”

If At First You Don’t Succeed…

And Jesus told the apostles

“One of you will betray me”.

And the apostles looked at each other

And said in unison, “We disagree.”

And so Jesus kept on living

And everyone kept sinning freely

And God queued up yet another flood

While mumbling to himself, “Really…?”

The Dead Sea Scrolls Revealed!

In the Bible, there’s a gap

Of 18 years or thereabout

Between when Jesus was a boy

And when he’d grown all out.

I think he used those missing years

As an omnipotent adolescent

To turn the oceans into wine

Both still and effervescent.

Dear Christians… There Is Only One

Let me introduce myself:

My name is Danny Michael.

I’m a circus performer

And I ride the unicycle.

I’m glad you guys are happy

But imagine how you’d feel

If you were me, and you kept telling

Jesus to take the wheel…

Son Of God, Father Of Refreshing Beverages?

They say Jesus turned water into wine

But there’s an alternative guess I see:

I think Jesus was the inventor of Kool-Aid

But hadn’t perfected the recipe.

The Sons Of Reuben Were All Prophets?

I think that Jesus didn’t have children

Because if he had children then

He’d make them sandwiches, but they’d complain

“Daaad… pastrami and rise again?”

—————————————————————

On the other hand, Moses was famous

For his sandwiches. That’s what I hear.

In fact, back in Egypt I heard he was voted

The Nigev desert’s manna the year.

It’s A Matter Of Efficiency, Really

Today is Easter, as you know.

It’s also April Fool’s Day.

I think those go together

As they celebrate the way

That Jesus was all dead and stuff

And then suddenly he wasn’t.

The two holidays make sense to me

Because the whole “not dead” thing doesn’t.

What also doesn’t make much sense

Is a question of this kind:

It’s that God sacrificed himself

To appease himself I mind.

Not only that, but if it’s true

That Jesus isn’t dead

Then why not find another way

To cure one’s Godly head?

It seems if you’re omnipotent

You could just say “hey folks,

“Get your shit together”

Instead of the “oops, not dead yet” jokes.

But I am just a human

And can’t be my own son

So I’ll just eat my chocolate eggs

And let His will be done.

Is This Just Uninspired Trash Or Some Sort Of Super-Roundabout-Yomama Joke Or What?

Folks sometimes yell

“Jesus Christ!” When they’re mad,

But what did Mary shout

When Jesus was bad?

I do have a theory

And, yes, it is lame

But when Jesus was bad

Mary shouted my name.

In Hindsight, Not A Guy To Cross

Jesus’s phone rang, and so he asked “who dis?”

The voice told him “my name is Judas.”

Looking back on it now

Jesus needn’t’ve said “ow”

If right then he had fled to Barbudas.
