Coffee Rings and Christ
People have been saying it's the end times for a millennium.
Christ tends to percolate to the surface of the mind.
During turbulent and bloody times.
There have always been wars, plagues, and bad men.
People have suffered and grieved and moved along.
Plowing through the bones of the saints and the damned.
Enduring the indifference and savagery of kings.
They've waded through the backwash of time.
To see yet another and another sunrise.
Christ is not coming any time soon.
Just be nice to one another
Kick back, have a cup of Java, enjoy the sunshine.
