The Evangelist

By Ablebody Peckawood

Transfixed by the crucifix. His blinding revelations helped me see the light! In my hour of need on my tv via sattelite network feed.
We live in a world of chainsaws and hand grenades. Too many graves of tortured sex slaves. That twist your emotions, while abomination reigns.
Now stand up my brethren (he commands). Join hands and let not the chains of oppression bind you down.
Take back the streets from the corruption of the police!
He had suffered greatly in the past, now all the riches he deserved would fall into his grasp!

    Take back the streets from the police? What streets? Indeed this points out some issues with religion and opulence, and violence and weaponry, and the chains of oppression should be thusly cast off...nice piece
