This is an 8-page zine– Folding instructions here
Hark! Are cartridges our new disciples?
Do carved ridges mark marksman’s verses,
tallied sins rallying witless somber ends
and well-rehearsed widow’s hearses?
Tell me again, who’s liable?
Can I ask, is it
Bibles or small caskets you’re selling?
Go ahead and hold firmly
two wagging trigger fingers flush
just under your righteous nose—
Lather up, and I think you can trust
The Lord’s finest razor will sort the rest out
Now, class, take your homework and your vests out
