I think Jesus must get tired of listening to <br />everyone’s prayers. I mean, day in and day <br />out, the incessant chatter of all the little <br />mouths beseeching him for this or that – it <br />must drive him bonkers. <br /> <br />I think maybe he doesn’t really listen to all <br />the prayers. <br /> <br />Maybe he’s like those big shot celebrities <br />who only read one or two pieces of fan mail <br />and then leave it to their staffs to send out <br />response letters and glossy photos. Hell, <br />some of them don’t even do that. I once <br />wrote to John Denver and the little MF <br />stiffed me – not even an acknowledgement. <br />Hey John! If you can hear me up there in <br />heaven (assuming that’s where you ended <br />up) , I just want to say that you burst my <br />bubble. You seemed so sensitive but you <br />turned out to be a big phony. Rocky <br />Mountain High, my ass. And now that <br />you’re rubbing shoulders with the savior, <br />you probably have even less time for a <br />personal message to us little people. Why <br />am I not surprised?<br /><br />Professor Poetry Hound<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fan-mail/
