if Christ were guillotined


Milo Redwood


heaven knows
why I get so much
pleasure ridiculing
idols and religious
symbols
like the cross

the cross is a perfectly
gruesome symbol and I get
heartily sick of seeing
it everywhere

okay let's say that his
Jesus person actually
existed and that he was
nice
even wise.
it's said that he lived
two thousand years ago--
which by all indications
means that he was surrounded
by moronic barbarians so
if he was even decent--
well let's just say it set
him apart but the book claims
that he was so much more than
decent
okay, fair enough.

Apparently being kind,
compassionate and wise
was a revolutionary thing
and revolutionary things
still get people killed

today I guess such a threat
to society would be either
shot, lethally injected
or gassed and his or her
followers
--so attached to a symbol--
would wear necklaces
and what not, displaying
a gun or syringe...

what would a tiny golden
gas chamber look like
dangling from your
beautiful neck?
