What if...
one day
in the history of your life
the skies parted
and the Lord poked
his omnipresent head through
the clouds and proclaimed
for all the scared sheep to know
that YOU were the Chosen One Part II
What would you do?
How to handle this upgrade?
I'm not sure
of the exact job description
but MESSIAH as a title
surely has a lot of perks
Comps wherever you go
Preferred parking
for your white limo
I wonder if celibacy
is still a required necessity
like it was
with the first edition dude
who got nailed to a cross centuries ago?
One would think this time around
such hardship restrictions would be lifted
given the all the modern day temptations
Verification of your true divinity
would be no problem in our tech age
given all us pilgrims have cameras
to post messiah miracles daily
Social media would explode
You'd surely be trending perpetually
All the gossip rags
would be working round the clock
dredging up all your buried skeletons
that occurred before your heavenly promotion
Doubters would be forever
looking for he hidden wires
determined to prove you a fraud and liar
Not to mention
incurring the skeptical wrath
of conspiracy theorists
who are eternally belief challenged
So would you accept
this complicated savior position
or stay the course
on your current civilian path
and leave the saving of souls
to the professionals ?
