Description A dollar bill floats to the floor of
a million dollar cathedral,

and men run to find it
in the pews and in the rectory.

Jesus and his apostles ride
donkeys through town,

and holy men despise him
in the rivers and the mountains.

G-Men sell gold
to the damage land

and thieves find them ways
to thrive on water and bread.

The world rotates one more time
and the sun burns hotter

and the cathedral and the house
and the congress and the churches

ignore the birds and the birches
Catching fire in the air.
