inspiration: ani difranco

Literal

when they said he could walk on water
what it sounds like to me

is he could float like a butterfly
and sting like a bee

literal people are scary, man
literal people scare me

out there trying to rid the world of its poetry

while getting it wrong fundamentally
down at the church of "look!
it says right here, see!
"

-Ani Difranco

NOTE: I feel like if I lived in the time before the Bible was completely distorted by morons, I'd find it to be a beautiful book.
