Good Friday

As Tracy asks me what “Good Friday” really is,
or what we basically do on this day.

I said,
“Well, with respect to the day when Jesus died for our sins,
we try to remember our sins and ask for forgiveness.”

“Really?” she says.
“What else?” she added.

I said,
“What do you mean what else?
That would pretty much take the whole day.
And sometimes the whole Saturday too, just in case.”

Oh and just because it’s a holiday,
we make sure no one will go out partying.
Nor be happy.
And no laughter either.

Or else you will burn in hell!
And share a room with Hitler.
