Pierced Nk

where can i go escape your prying eyes ~ piercing me what you see all my lies fills with more dismay and woe but, grace on grace, you still pursue in spite of what you know though i’m a lowly worm it seems that you desire to fill me with your fire to carry me to term to place me in your glow and let me ever worship you ————— for the Charlie New-Ku Poetry Contest sponsored by Charles Messina written on 8/27/22

Love: it seems that you desire to fill me with your fire to carry me to term - what interesting wording. Many women choose “not to carry to term,” but our Lord is always faithful to the ones who long to know him and make him known. God bless!

Thanks, Kim, I figure he delivers us from the sinful life, so carrying to term made sense to my weird brain!
