why is it called “good”
Friday
Friday
when he died
killed
lynched by an angry mob
why good
she asks all week
not able to comprehend
tongue-in-cheek
liturgical days
that poke fun at empire
and institutionalized violence
this satire is sacred
why good
because those with eyes to see
ears to hear
know we.are.free
universal goodness
wins out in the never end
but for now
it doesn’t feel good
it should not
so let the question linger
