When The Spirit Moves You

I saw Jesus at a used car lot

Driving an Astro van he bought

With velvet seats and fuzzy dice

Speeding off to paradise

To a greasy diner on riverbed

Buying breakfast for all his friends

Ate bacon fried, until it’s crisp

While smoking Marlboro cigarettes

The angels sang Bob Marley songs

In harmony, he sang along

The short-order cook had fishnets on

Taking requests until the dawn

They called last call at the buffet bar

While the waitress played a mean guitar

He promised she could be a star

If she won a game of pickle ball

I don’t recall what happened next

A Benjamin covered the checks

A night that I won’t soon forget

I found salvation, not yet spent
