Call me homely, lady. But Never call again

poI met Jesus at Taco Bell,
He looked nothing like the pictures, and
punched my order in like he wasn't anything at all.

i asked
-how's life friend?
His tired shell didn't even need to look up,
not to inch his tone or wax humanity.

-it's been better.
Honest and brutal as death.

He just handed over my tacos and went out back for a cigarette break.
I grabbed my piece of half-rancid meat pumped fresh from the machine
took a swig of 5% real fruit juice from concentrate
and swatted a fly
How can it get any better than this?
