Wedding Reception

The wedding feast was over,
We saved the best wine for last,
Now we had to deal with the beggars,
The homeless who waited outside,
They’re drunk,
Someone said,
So are we,
We replied,
Loading up the leftover wine,
We were faced by the old black man
Who asked for money,
We told him we were broke,
Gave it all to the Bride,
The security guard approached,
We told him it was ok,
Handed the old man a bottle of Champagne,
He quietly dissolved away,
We continued our loading,
The guard shook his head,
Told us we could have been killed,
We looked at him and asked
If he knew who the old guy was,
He’d be better off dead
The guard replied,
Sure, we said,
He's already been crucified.
