NO INVITE FOR PAUL



I HAVE AN ARGUMENT WITH PAUL
NOTHING NEW THERE
HE’S NOT MY FAVORITE PERSON

I’D NEVER INVITE HIM TO MY PARTY

HE’D BE ARGUMENTATIVE
DEFENSIVE
IN YOUR FACE
ALWAYS RIGHT

HE REMINDS OF THE KID
WHO TOLD THE TEACHER
SHE FORGOT TO GIVE OUT HOMEWORK

WHEN PAUL SAYS
I LIVE NOT I
BUT CHRIST

I AM REMINDED
OF THOSE MODERN DAY HORROR PICTURES
WHERE THE MONSTER IS RUN BY A LITTLE MAN INSIDE

IF THAT’S WHAT PAUL MEANT
I DON’T THINK THAT’S WHAT CHRIST MEANT

IF HE MEANT
SO WHAT CHRIST WOULD DO
THINK LIKE CHRIST
ACT LIKE CHRIST
TO FULFILL THE QUESTION
WHAT WOULD JESUS DO
AND DO IT

IF WE ARE GOOD
BECAUSE JESUS DOES IT
WHEN WE ARE BAD
DO WE BLAME JESUS TOO

HE WANTS HIS CREATION
TO IMITATE HIM
NOT A SOME QUARRY SLAVE
BUT A FREE MAN


I LAY BEFORE YOU
GOOD AND EVIL
CHOOSE GOOD


I MIGHT RECONSIDER
MY INVITE TO PAUL
IF HE CHANGED HIS VIEWS ON WOMEN
DIDN’T CONSIDER CELIBACY BETTER THAN MATRIMONY
BUT HE WOULD  ALSO HAVE TO ROLE PLAY
BEING A FATHER
ON A TRIP WITH WIFE AND KIDS
WHEN FROM THE BACK
COMES A PLAINTIVE CRY

CORINTH AGAIN
BORING
