Nothing Sacred
or The Crucifixion
they toilet papered Jesus
as He hung from the cross
preparing Him for
the plastic eggs and the
pastel marshmallow bunny rabbits
with dung pile after dung pile
of rainbow and licorice flavored jelly beans
and crinoline worn Easter dresses
and knife creased Sunday slacks
worn by boys and girls who
toilet paper Jesus daily
by the plastique applause
of their sins
