SimikPK,
The name, "Demas," is intensely problematic. I was ready to dig in and play with the idea of Jesus as a Social Anthropologist, but your response to crit seems to foreclose this. Here's the Wikipedia quote:
"Demas, mentioned by the Apostle Paul in the New Testament of the Bible, appears to have been a man involved in the ministry as a companion of Paul,[Colossians 4:14][Philemon 1:24][1] and has been described as 'one of the most intriguing biblical bit players.' [2]"
If you want the allusion, shore it up a bit more. Otw, change the name. As I've said, handle names in poetry as you would uranium in a teacup: very carefully.
