Jesus and the Alien
by Ivan Jenson
today the
aliens have landed and so has Jesus
while Elvis changes into rhinestones at the hotel
Louie and Dolly
rejoice the sight of
Reubens collaborating
with Botero
Judy sings with Liza
a lyric which explains Stonehenge
while the common cold gets shot
in cold blood by a vaccine
invented by a boy with a stuffy nose
Walt Disney throws a parade
for anyone with Mickey Mouse ears
and Moses quips, “take these
two tablets and call me in the
morning of the second coming.”
all traffic lights are green
all traffic merged
and all is well that is ending
well, or could this be the beginning
of the first ever
everlasting wife
yes, the aliens have landed
on the same day as Jesus
oh, of all the days to resurrect
it had to be when a saucer
shaped like a coffee cup
landed on a Starbucks
and PS
just before the last deletion
all were saved
for the aliens
convinced Jesus
not to be so
judgemental
