Search For God

Pope embarassed, clergy disgraced,
twenty year mission, lost in space

Angels discovered, (LGBT group with wings)
warm in the stable, cherubim sings

Turin Shroud faker,  waits  pearly gate,
will his deception, decide a grim fate?

NASA confounded, confused and reeling,
funding withdrawn for project supreme being

Millions starve while archbishops get fatter,
martyrs revive, to discuss the latter

TV preachers line their pockets, blaming
zion for failing rockets

Somewhere, nowhere Jehovah watches,
smiling strong at earthly botches

Sends down for men, new commandments,
guilded words without transendence

Only one instead of ten, simple words
etched out for men, read quite clear the

Meaning’s plain,

DON’T SEND UP A ROCKET AGAIN!
