Mr. Gabidar blows the angel's breath out
of the top of the soda bottle
before taking a swig of ginger ale.
Once he releases the condensation, he feels secure his heretical ways
find the irony in sacred beliefs.
For Bibles spontaneously combust when he forgets to use a yad to read,
pages turn to ashes with a light touch
and a small conflagration may occur especially in "the House of the Lord." For lightning longingly waits to inflict grievous bodily harm, if not to strike
him dead, however, he chooses to live.
