God,
I just saw
Superman
And I pray for
the day
when
movies
don’t hit
home
So hard
And the brown
children
in the midst of
war
waving a flag
Don’t break your
heart
And the world
Splitting in two
of a “Natural
Disaster”
doesn’t
make
your jaw clench
And God
I pray that
when people
cry because
the Lex Luthers
of the world
Make them
feel bad
And the immigrants
are the Superheroes
That the Holy Spirit
Keeps
Tapping them
On the shoulder
nipping
Them
in the
Ear
And
touching
them on their
heart
Because
Maybe art
Isn’t the one
Way through
But I’ll take
Blood,
Sweat,
Tears,
Votes
And
your favorite
Pop
Character
Because
At this point
Anything
To Welcome
people
to there revelation
God help us
Walk until
everyone
can see
the Superpuppy
as cute
and all earthlings
as Beloved
We pray.
Amen.
