IN THE CHURCH OF
COFFEE AND SMOKES

“And now,

Let us all pray”

Ex-hale.

Does anybody
Have a cigarette?

Let’s all talk about your day,
Light up simultaneously.

Oh Lord,
I need more sugar
In my coffee

And not that artificial
Crap

Confession;

One on one,
Let’s all talk about
All of your sins,

Smiling.

No hail Mary’s, no regrets
For our God only demands
More cigarettes.

And that you light up
And get happily caffeinated
So that all, will be “forgiven”

Does anybody have another cigarette?

He hears your prayers
So pray, to Saint Marlboro
And they shall all be answered

More coffee?

More taxes?

More bullshit from the masses?

This religion, is getting damn expensive

“Amen”
