someone at the door
knock knock knock
try to keep my eyes straight ahead
do not let them roll away
when I spot the leather book in hand.

no thank you,
no thank you.

but, but, but
just in case
here's a card
have a pamphlet
date time number

no really,
no thank you.

are you sure
sure sure sure?

yes, thank you,
I'm sure.

ma'am do you believe in god
have you accepted jesus in your heart?

no, I do not.
no, I reject him
with all my heart.
please go.

oh.
I see.
okay ma'am
thank you for your time.
I'll pray for you.

(do not look at me
like that,
with your god's judgment
in your eyes.
this is my house,
my door,
my porch.
you are the intruder.
this is not my fault.)
