I Don't Have a Problem With Jesus, It's His Friends I Don't Like
a collection of poems* by Alyson S.
An open letter to Gov. Perry
Dear governor Rick
please stop calling to Jesus
it's scaring people
Plural Marriage
What's wrong with polygamy?
I can't seem to find the cause
people say that it's immoral
and pass all sorts of laws
the restrict the rights of second wives
and third, and fourth, and fifth
try to brush it underneath the rug
like plural marriage is a myth
seems like things would be better
if we legalized their rights
they wouldn't have to live on compounds
which are pretty scary sights
Mormons, they seem pretty strange
other people can't abide
they say "my religion says that yours is wrong"
and don't want to coincide
but having one wife is hard enough
the last time that I checked
so maybe we should mind our own
and give the husband more respect.
Converting - a Limerick
There once was a young man from Sens
who tried to convert all his friends
he tried and he tried
and insulted their pride
and they left him alone in the end
Jehovas
Look out the window
men with bibles at the door
No, not answering
