To Hell with Them

Mocked you might have, Tebow’s kneeldowns
Thanking God for Denver touchtowns.
Sunday, though, you might have wondered:
Had I in my doubting blundered?
Overtime’s first play, he passes
Fifty yards before stunned masses.
Wide receiver Thomas runs it
In to win, as though by His Writ.
Underdogs, no matter who scoffs,
Cast out Pittsburgh from the playoffs.

Ever since, there’s rumor humming
Tim himself’s The Second Coming.
He’d be first to know, you’d reason.
(Although why no perfect season?)
All of which makes me envisage
Armageddon marked in yardage,
Broncos versus Patriots,
Boston Christians snared in knots.
Anti-Christs at Final Judging,
Not a posture I’m begrudging.
