SALVATOR MUNDI

Do you know Salvator Mundi?

The Savior of the world, they say

Painted by Leonardo—

Because that’s the only way

You sell a face like that

For four hundred million dollars

I think it’s the restorer’s confession

An old woman with solvent hands

She scrubbed a god into existence

Layer by layer

Taste by taste

Those sacred folds in the robe—

Don’t preach to me

That’s anatomy pretending to be mystery

If that’s a symbol

It’s laughing behind the glass

The crystal orb is a cheap trick

No refraction, no law, no light

Truth, apparently

Doesn’t bend when money’s right

Throw in the Pleiades for garnish—

Cosmic seasoning sells

Do you know Salvator Mundi?

Leonardo’s ghost signs the label

Belief is the price tag

Doubt is disabled

Four hundred million dollars—

Faith, framed and stable

I think it’s a five-dollar antique

With a billion-dollar costume

Alchemy finally worked:

Lead desire into golden room

The auction was theater

The hammer was a prayer

Some prince who can’t read art

Bought God as décor for air

Hyenas circled the miracle—

Dealers, scholars, tongues well fed

Everyone got a piece of Jesus

Except the truth, which stayed dead

That thing’s worth less than shit, they say—

But even shit feeds land

This one just feeds accounts

And disappears from hand to hand

Do you know Salvator Mundi?

Right hand raised to bless the trade

The Savior didn’t save the world—

He validated the price they made
