Electric Christ

Electric sermon.
Morrison preached in poetic parables.
  Fans
Apostles the faithful masses.
We don't have Barabbas.
Who was your Judas?

We the living who steal from your memory.
Crowned you the electric Christ.

   Crucified by fame. Eternal slumber is your reward. Are you in heaven? or Are you in hell?

    We recently had a strawberry festival and at the poster stand Morrison's picture was everywhere. Teens were stopping and begging parents to buy it. That surprised me... interesting write you have penned. Thank you for entering.

    Interesting use of 50 words. I really pondered on this one. Please include I have Poetic Grace in AN, or else. JK
