He Was Not There

Not coming, long gone, 
Accused of loving, 
Precariously balancing, 
On a shelf, an oven. 

Christians and atheists,
Will swap one day, 
When people will sway, 
To the music of anti-theists. 

No bribery, no rues, 
Just with love, trust, 
And with a life lust, 
We’ll get our dues.
