Lent Vs Yom Kippur
Christians have their Lent,
40 days of atonement,
sacrificing something of enjoyment.
When those 40 days of atonement comes to an end,
if you have not indulged once your sacrifice of enjoyment,
all of your past sins get forgiven.
Yom Kippur, now that's a deal I could sink my teeth in.
One day of atonement and all your past sins are wiped clean.
"Some gentiles can be such putzs," some Jews must hail,
"Even for sin those schmucks will still pay retail."
