Demonstrating Church

Sat squatting, you wait
cold as your own mind set.
Is this the church you chose?
 
Illusive is the sanctitude 
that you so feverishly search for.
Yet still you wait,
so patiently in the damp light.

Under duress,
as if the corruption
means nothing.

The blankets on which you sit,
can’t keep the cold
from seeping though.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
