This is another freewrite I did. "O-P-E-N" is referring to the flashing sign that I was watching across the street and the rest of it was inspired by a random lyric I heard in one of the songs they were playing.

Enjoy, and I don't mean to offend anybody. It was all good fun... ;)

O-P-E-N. Flash Blue Flash flash flash flash. O-P-E-N… And over again.

“And Jesus was a sailor.”

But if Jesus was a sailor, he probably had a lot of fun when they made port and in that case, he died for his own sins too.

Too bad. If only the general public knew it. I could write a book about this called “Jesus the Sailor” and it would open their eyes and maybe even gather a cult following.

They’d call themselves the ‘sailorists’ and I’d go down in history with L. Ron Hubbard and maybe Matt Damon would be our official spokesperson and jump on Dr. Phil’s La-z-boy and get some bad press for that.

Too bad it was just a song. Jesus isn’t a sailor—a musician just decided to make him one… kind of like the other Jesus, the guy on the bus. The one who’s one of us.

… because everyone in Poway rides the bus.
