To all my Sadducees
and Pharisees..
feel welcome
to make use
of your God-given right..
to point your finger
and to gloat at me,
all day and night.
My truths, indeed,
have the contemplative
authority to rock your boat..
but if your faith is real,
I’m sure that it will still
remain afloat.

To The Ones
who truly hearken
unto me
I’m no pied piper.
Unlike you are
to all the people
who perceive you
as the good and just..
You brood of vipers!
Though some of you
may truly live
your gospel truth,
admit I must..
The Devil of the details
liveth in thy proof
of doing so..
and that’s the only
currency I trust.
The blood of Christ
or Abraham alone
won’t nearly do.
Show me, instead,
the evidence
of thy good fruits.

My tree grows fruits
both sweet and bitter,
and both flavors
to my God
taste just as fine.
Your sweetest ones, however,
better be at least as good
as bitterest ones
growing upon mine.
For, it is written..
Ye shall be The One
who is condemned
upon their flesh
to dine.
