43. (5-9-20, Lewiston) (Com)+Passion (pronounced Compassion and Passion)
A grand new Passion is needed for this bold, cold modern age
Not of Jesus, monastery, or the handsome virgin Mary
Nor saffron fibers in the ashes, or sad flagellers with deep gashes
Not of Krishna, military, or some wistful magic fairy
Nor a big white man so hairy, or an afterlife so scary
Not of mustachios with an iron fist, or presidents who won’t be missed
Nor of demons dancing in the valley, or angels singing “Glory Halle-“
The only spirits we should ode our prayer are love, and life, and justice fair
The only Gods for who we sacrifice, should be those who work to grow our rice
We must fight hand in hand for The Passion 2.0
Of this beautiful world, shall we know?
