THE STABLE IN BETHLEHEM

A mythical child-god
Poops his pants in a stable;
Shit-stained swaddling clothes
Give lie to pristine legends
About an almighty become cuddly child.
Persian astrologers
Have shit-strewn straw flung in their faces
By the laughing, sinless son of god
As they describe their horoscopes
About the purported inscrutableness
Of it all.

There is no god and I am his prophet. — me

Nihil est ut in contentione ut memoria de mortuis. — me
