Closing
Time
Attention
K-Mart worshippers!
The Gates
of Repentance will be closing in fifteen minutes.
Please
bring any items you wish to regret to the check-out line at this time.
The Gates
of Repentance will be closing in fifteen minutes.
Thank
you.
If God
were clever,
There
would be automatic sliding glass doors that lead into each house of worship.
And you’d
put your feet on that black plastic mat
And stand
there waiting
but
nothing would happen.
And then
you’d realize
That it
isn’t busted
That your
body’s weight has nothing to do with it
All that
is being measured is your merit.
Each good
deed four measly ounces.
And you’d
go back into the parking lot
You’d
drive to a dangerous part of town,
and you’d
roam the sidewalks, bent on righteousness.
- Daniel S. Brenner
