The Little Lord Jesus Sacrificial Lamb

The little lord Jesus asleep not on the hay but in the street Like Abraham the little boy was sacrificed on the machine's high holy day One day after the Winter Solstice His family lived in a comfortable home in Brooklyn NY but his father took the subway to the highest mountain near The Dakota in Central Park West The 3 year old named was translated to Kyrios Christos or the Lord in his father's tongue He was placed on the high alter at exactly 12 noon prime meridian On the day in question a mother's child was stolen from the womb unlike the Star of Bethlehem Venus went backwards Virgo in opposition to the dark side of Pluto and Pisces and the Uranus square or the Trickster Like Christ his red blonde hair was covered in blood the measure of oil equivalent 30 pieces of gold In three days times the three wise men would have been welcome to Gotham City but the Mayor went golfing in Bermuda and the shops were out of Gold Frankenstein and Myrrh But what of his message of peace and good will towards men the sacrificed was paid and the little Lord Jesus lay not in the hay but dead in NY city streets
