If you give a birthday party for Jesus
just be aware he might show up
not the gauzy gazed at infant
not the gaudy glowing saint
but the fleshy mess of breath and bones
holding banners, singing in the cold
what would happen if he came inside
the room, the candles would they sputter?
or turn to tongues of flame?
