Praise Him
They praise him as if he fed five thousand with
 five loaves of bread and two fish.
 They praise him as though he healed the boy with the demon, and
  praise him as if he predicted the death of a man, then later
 revealed that on the third day, that that same  man will be raised to life.
 
 They praise him as if he touched two blind men
 and revived their sight.
 They praise him as if he predicted Peter’s denial, and
 praise him as if he healed a man with leprosy.
 
 Yes, his smile brings warmth to my body, 
 diminishing goose bumps that I acquire when he
 Winks at me. 
 Yes, I purposely walk the long way to class, just so I can obtain a 
  Meager waft of his Armani Colon.
 And yes, I droll a bit, sitting behind him in math class, because the back of his 
 Head is just as sexy as the front.
 
 So, yes, its feasible they praise him because the terminology his name possesses 
 mandates praise and glory.
 But, although he envisions life as a child of God 
 He does and will not retain the 
 Entitlement only one identity subsumes.
 
 But until the day he has the capability
 To be killed and resurrected from the dead,
 I will solely, laud God.
