God Fearing Man

That fat bastard
God called me on the telephone
and said,
"Explain yourself


to me."


The pause got to me,
of course,

i was weeping
and sullen
afraid

"Explain yourself


to me."

His baritone echoed
down the miles and miles
and miles
of line from heaven to my heart

I croaked a bit, "I thought you knew..."

"Explain yourself

to me."

and then I knew
it was just a recording.

Lazy assed deity
I should have known.

Freakin' Sudan
Flies in their mouth and shit.

Explain yourself
To me.
