home Poem List next poem Bunnies Versus Gods. Hamilton observed needs for unity And Washington revived our thanksgiving Fundamental christians sought equity Equating our past with their own living Faulty reasoning and stealing the past They conspired to rewrite our history Holidays in which unity was cast Were transformed to religious mystery Christmas was the day of empathy Filled with phantasy and great happiness Christians replaced it with dead man's sympathy By hanging bodies bleeding in duress Easter was for Ruler Rabbit Thirteen Intellectual master of the ancients Teaching children to search for the pristine Beneath the leaves of temporal transients Then jews and moslems citing church and state Said if Christ has critical involvement This was plainly slighting the hindu slate Their pantheon of gods and devolvement Thus our Easter's happy hopping bunnies Like our jolly Santa Claus and his elves Were removed from school candies and honeys Displaced by hatreds from religious shelves (c)ERA 12:26 AM 4/25/03
