Jesus, you know, had his flaws —
hanging with whores and lepers,
flagrantly flouting Rome's laws.
Jesus, we're told, did not worship gold —
though he probably never paid taxes.
Was he as fair? Did he have better hair?
Was his skin as glossy as wax is?
Jesus, of course, was crucified —
hung on the cross until he died.
And he was not a woman abuser.
Donald would probably call him “a loser”.

No. CXXXIII.i: EXTRA! Nonsense On Pedestals
To “celebrate history” it would be absurd
to put up a statue of King George the Third.
One simple fact, there is no debate here:
Confederate statues celebrate traitors.
Yes, it's our history, but come on now, Donald.
Do you see statues of Benedict Arnold?
(Never examined in these discourses:
why Southerners worship dead losers on horses.)
And, however hard you may sleuth,
even Dixie lacks statues of John Wilkes Booth.
