christian men and christian women
often have sex, and find it to be
an excellent sort of thing to do
we are very careful, however,
to never discuss this activity
using any language which
might bring to mind
the slightest hint of
the remembered or anticipated
the emotion or the experience
even words like "evocative" and "nuance"
are avoided, being a little bit
too dangerous.
christian men and christian women
often stand in a room with
a thousand strangers singing
all unfettered adjectives and adverbs
of overwhelming beauty and
longing for a completion
which shatters the secret soul
and fulfills creation
stretching out our hands
to touch the divine
oh, to be the beautiful bride
on the night she finally
gives herself to her lover
christian men and christian women,
this is one reason why
people sometimes
don't take us seriously
