TOUGH JOB

Of all the jobs in the universe

the worst is at Heaven’s gate.

When the day arrives and they

stand there before you

with a choir of evangelicals

singing, while thousands

behind them still weep and the

Virgin Mary protests;

children still searching for

mommies and daddies, for

parents they lost forever.

How many good enoughs are needed

to cancel out all the bad?

Your job is to count all the

ways they failed themselves

and others, worshiping the god

of money and power, lying

for personal gain;

turning with vengeance on friends,

killing thousands by inaction;

adultery; booby trapping

their country’s future.

Gatekeeper, what’s your decision?

Karma! As many lifetimes as required.

By now you have probably heard that Trump cannot be listed on Colorado’s Republican primary list for the 2024 General Election,  due to a ruling by the state’s Supreme Court earlier this week, based on the Fourteenth Amendment, which forbids anyone who has caused an insurrection from becoming President.  Next to the Supreme Court of the land?  Do you think the Fourteenth Amendment is unreasonable?
