The Jesus Action Figure
by Joe Christensen
Poor Jesus.
I saw him locked
In a plastic box
On a clearance rack
At TJ Maxx.
He couldn’t breathe in there,
Nor perform his resurrection
Locked in that sarcophagus.
I went to pierce the plastic shroud,
But feared the clasp of handcuffs.
I thought about his purchase.
But at eight ninety nine,
gas at four a gallon,
five mouths, bellies and two canines,
the role of Pilate didn’t seem a bargain.

E-bays got ‘em including the Jesus with glowing hands and the last supper lunch box.
