Please read the last stanza before you call me a sinner...

This is an adaptation of Dramatic Verse, Shakespeare or not...

Only what we can laugh about, can we take seriously...

The Past Flutter In the ‘shame’ of the mother the daughter and in unruly spirit a drag queen enters the land Why not she ponders my Jesus is transgender he himself turned the tables and went on a bender Engaged with Magdalene and not all disciples fit nicely with the notion of strict archetypal ‘normality’ posterity wants to make us believe that queerness was not up his caring sleeve Rags and pink feathers surely adorned his crown yet straight followers of conviction whittled down diversity otherness distinctive medley variance excluded themselves from a different stance Lesbian gay bisexual trans-all Jesus’ are so close to his or her message in open minded repose I am not mocking and do not wish to offend but greatness has no borders in this holy land 10th February 2018

I imagine He would have stood by all genders, to take on the persecution and the beating He did and then to be nailed to a cross...he was the highest order of empath, so perhaps you are correct amongst the lines here, he took on others ideals' of themselves.

Thanks Leanne. The problem is how we often distort the message of true religion.
