Crimbo Poem - Ron English


Santa Christ

I don’t mean to offend

Or speak out of turn

But the man they called Jesus

Shall never return

He’s not indifferent

Or above our concern

2000 years later

We still haven’t learned

No matter how we may pray

No matter how we may yearn

No ascension

No return

No he’s not in heaven

No he’s not in an urn

He’s not in that place

Where sinners all burn

No Jesus never died

High up on that cross

No human kind

Never suffered that loss

Being a martyr

Just wasn’t his role

Dying so young

Just wasn’t his goal

Jesus just aged

Into a jolly ole soul

On top of the world

High on the North Pole
