Jesus Torment - The Villanelle Of The Bible--

Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the bible
It was just so dear and energetic
Never had he known anything so royal

That morning, Jesus was shocked by the thimbles
He found himself feeling rather synthetic
Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the bible

Later, he realized that the bible was antibacterial
He thought the situation had become rather theistic
Never had he known anything so royal

Paul tried to distract him with a libel
Said his mind had become too peripatetic
Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the bible

Jesus took action like a scheible
The bible was becoming too genetic
Never had he known anything so royal

Jesus nosedived like a imperfect human
His mind became dangerously arithmetic
Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the bible
Never had he known anything so non royal
