SAINTS

 

a lot of people get saints wrong

so i'll break it down

right now

a saint might have eaten shit

in an elaborate way

at the hands of a roman

or barbarian king

a saint might have levitated or learned

the cure for madness or rabies

a saint might have endured years

at the top of a mountain

or in the dark recess of a cave

these things make them awesome 

but not saints

they must all be re-evaluated

so listen:

i'll tell you what a saint is

and then you can canonize

whomever you want:

a saint is one 

who tears a hole 

in reality

    from the outside

and then splits
