why are there no letters

from the Corinthians to Saint Paul?

Did they ever get his missives?

or did they treat them as Hate mail

and use them as palimpsests?

Who did he send them to, exactly?

or are they the Biblical equivalent

of newspaper letters stuck to school books?

Did the citizens of Corinth

gather round to hear the lastest complaints

from the Earliest Karen in the world?

The Letters of St Paul

are really just a right-wing editorial

ranting about foreigners doing foreign things

that Paul objected to.
