Psalm 129

Psalm 129
By mistake once my hand slipped into her 
Smooth, cleaned and shiny thigh when I wanted to change the gear 
She gave me a look, very strange indeed 
And I suppose I did not understand the meaning of it 
But inside I grew a mixture of desire and wish to touch her again 
And this time very intentionally I slipped my hand 
But portended again that this was an error of judgement 
She looked at me and said, you know, i am a nun 
And perhaps you know the Psalm 129 
I told her sorry several times 
and begged pardon too of my misjudgements 
But inside I felt something that pulled me towards her 
And touched her shiny thigh again
And this time I did not pretend to be erroneous 
She looked at me and said again, please, remember I am a nun 
And I think you know the Psalm 129 
I felt very ashamed and my face became red 
And promised her that I would not touch her again 
Then the destination came 
She got down and was moving towards her home 
But before she entered into the gate 
She gave me a look and this time it was very pitiful 
I rushed back home 
And hurriedly opened the Psalm 129 and it reads 
'' Go forth and seek , further up and you will find the glory'' .
