omg rejection letter
by
Charles Martin
·
we regret
to inform you
that your application
for sainthood
has been
denied
please note
this is
no reflection
upon what you’ve been
saying
but
praying for
the poor
the homeless
peace
et cetera
is not
the same as
doing
something
for those individuals
or
areas of concern
your wishful prayers
are indeed
characteristic of
an
admirable personality
and
we appreciate
your frequent
and
considerable
soliloquies with us
but
we’re
rather filled up
with folks
with
good
intentions
