Guy Who

Christjob: Like Punching a Timeclock Formed In Jerusalem Stone
christ dies daily on the cross
he gets up shaking in the jerusalem dawn
and prepares for a day of crucifixion
each day he goes about his business
with the eating and the walking
and the preaching
then judas betrays him
roman guards arrest him
and he ends up dying on the cross
it’s a job like any other
like dealing blackjack
or fixing bicycles
he hangs on the cross till he’s limp
gets transported to a cave
sleeps, wakes up and does it all over again
