Listen Christian!




I was hungry -
and you formed a humanities club
and discussed my hunger.
Thank you.

I was imprisoned -
and you crept off quietly
to your chapel in the cellar
and prayed for my release.

I was naked -
and in your mind
you debated the morality
of my appearance.

I was sick -
and you knelt and thanked God
for your health.

I was homeless -
and you preached to me
of the spiritual shelter
of the love of God.

I was lonely -
and you left me alone
to pray for me.

You seem so holy,
so close to God,
but I am still very hungry
and lonely... and cold.
