Seasonal Employment

The lackluster Jesus just polishes cars
as the haves all head off to the holidays.
He sprawls in a drift in the guise of a cross
and sings praise of the wage that no money pays.
And a tip of the lid to his curious crew,
and a nog on the egg to odd others.
He climbed up a tree in his break to get free.
Now he calls all the leaflets his brothers.
