The Parable of the Tenants

Matthew 21:33-46
The Parable of the Tenants

It has been a long time really
Since the beginning of time
We just need a bit more time
To fix things
make the right
the fruit is not cooperating
and we are not sure we like it anyway
we have some suggestions for improvement
what fruit to let in
and what to keep out
and then there is that big stone over there
it is in the way
we are trying to build a wall
keep others out
and after all this time
don’t you think it should be ours anyway
don’t you
and Jesus looked down from the cross
and said
Father, forgive them
For they know not what they do
