CHRISTIAN FOOD PARCEL
OH COME ALL YE CHRISTIAN GENTLEFOLK
WHY DON'T YE PRAY
BY ARRANGING FOR FAMILIES WITH STARVING CHILDREN
TO BE SENT AN EXTRA FOOD PARCEL EACH WEEK?
HOW CAN WE FEAST WHILE THEY FREEZE?
HOW CAN WE TURN THE BLIND EYE
WHILE THE VOICES FROM BELOW DISSIPATE
AND THEIR BODIES DISINTEGRATE?
THE PHARISEES GIVE THE TWO AND A HALF PERCENT WITHES
FROM THEIR PLATES
TO THEIR CAREFULLY SELECTED NON-CHARITIES,
WHILE THE PRELATES PUT THEIR FINGERS IN THE INVISIBLE PIE
AND SHUN THE BEGGARS AT THE DOOR.
WHY ALL THE STUFF ON SUNDAYS
ABOUT UPHOLDING THE ABSENT POOR?
PUT YOUR EXPRESSED BELIEFS INTO ACTION,
AND REST HAPPY FOR EVERMORE.
