Professor Poetry Hound - My Marquee

Professor Poetry Hound - My Marquee

You know those marquee-type signs that small br businesses have? You know, the ones where you br can change the letters around and they usually br say things like “Try our new taco salad, ” (even br though the taco salad probably isn’t all that br “new” anymore) . In times of national tragedy, br they have witty, personalized messages like br “God Bless America” or “Support Our Troops.” br Well, I’m thinking of putting one of those signs br in my front yard, the kind with the big arrow br and flashing lights, and it will say, “Jesus is br ignoring the guy who lives here.” I figure it br might humiliate Jesus just enough to shake him br out of his lackadaisical stupor towards me and br he’ll realize he’s got one hell of a backlog of my br unanswered prayers. Now, as soon as he utters br one word to me or shepherds me around a little br bit like the bible advertises, I promise I’ll take br the sign down, or maybe I’ll just rearrange the br letters to say, “Jesus spoke to me. His English is br okay, but I couldn’t understand most of what he br said because he has a thick Aramaic accent.
