The Poorest Christian in My Country

once there was a man
who owned a giant chocolate factory
kids from all over the country
became his customers

they lined up to get a dip
into mars, venus, galaxy
and the rich kids cried
for super galaxy

while the man claimed to be a christian
his servants stood stern by the giant chocolate gate
"mars!? fourteen dollars nine cents!"
the little girl pulled out her pocket

"here you are."
she raised up her little palm to the servant
"welcome to chocolate factory."
the servant replied

"when can i get my mars?"
the little girl asked and the servant answered:
"sorry for your inconvenience.
your mars is being processed."

so did the same story
rehearsed itself over and over
while the kids wrote their disappointments on the wall
the man claimed himself to be a christian

"don't you see, young man, how many kids you've let down?"
a grandmother could no longer hold herself
to her greatest astonishment the man replied:
"i don't need your grandson to buy my chocolate."

grandmother and her grandson left chocolate factory
but that, didn't make the man not a christian
instead, he shouted: "i, am hero against corruption!"
even that, didn't make him a better christian
