Haiku for the Passing of Jesus

Today I found Jesus dead. He's been living in my room for 12 days. There were a couple days when I didn't see him, but he was usually out and about— easy to spot on my headboard enjoying my wine. I watched him eat a moth, crawl up a mirror and the wall, groom himself and fly. He was an amazing creature to observe.
