Jesus Saves

All those timeless platitudes
casual in their insouciant
yet visceral clinging to an
immortal spirit whose legend
(those of little faith disparage)
may slyly, covertly, work their
message into the most banal,
yet infuriatingly irritating of
conventions: electronic life.

Internet service and all those
vital networking sites, above all
email connectivity run the course
of our lives without which one
seems helpless to cope.  Here am
I, haplessly missing that service
whose absence a score of professional
technicians have failed to solve.

From a succession of service
technical supporters named Sam,
Mohammed, Sani Antoni, Elise,
Moise, Dietrich and more; confident
assurances of success - be thou but
patient, dear soul - yet despite time
and effort none succeeded.

Ah, then, in despair, a call from
Heaven brought my saviour, the sole
provider of swift remedy and the
problem solved by an assuring voice
from El Salvador whose technical
sleuthing skills were immediate,
decisive, inspired and successful.

The Messiah:  a humble, most
inordinately pleasant young man
whose duty it is to rescue the uninitiated
from the depths of their ignorance
through his most particular talents:
none other than he named Jesus.
