A Righteous Man

Bible in hand, along the devil’s boulevard

I make my stand.  Shoulders back, jaw set,

cross around my neck, I grin as Satan’s

sinners sweep past, daring the carnival of

tainted souls to tempt me into evil with

their heretical talk about family planning

and the use of birth control, with their

blasphemies about global warming, the need

for higher learning, which could only lead

to socialism, about equal rights and racial

mixing, same sex marriage and other

abominations, like gay acceptance and

higher taxes on the job creators, the unholy

continuation of  the EPA, FDA, Medicare,

Medicaid,  and the ungodly end of our

just wars and crusading nation building.

“Bring it on.”  I dare them.
