‘Jesus Teaches Breathing’ by Ray Cates

1 10 2009

He told the thumb sucking girl in kindergarden he was Jesus.  She looked at him funny, took her thumb out and said, “Glad to meet you, you look different in church pictures.”

“Yes I’m devine and can look any way at all.”

“You should bow down and adore me to”  he said and she did.  Nobody noticed so he got bolder.  The teachers were all dealing with a boy who had pooped his pants, and spilled the contents when they were off.

“Listen tonight in your bath when mom is gone, breathe the water.”

Doreen never went to kindergarden again.
