Take Me To Church

You are sweet of face, you have a certain grace
that both nuns and priest hotly desire.

The scent of sex is in you
it rides you.
The musk of a tigress permeates through
as you read a Sunday sermon.

God is back in His changing room,
He looks through a mirror
at your long legs and short skirt
turning this way and that
admiring what He sees.

The congregation sings a hymn
swaying from repression to raw lust.
Your voice rings out breaking glass minds.

I know God loves you
for He has love for both the tiger and the lamb
in equal measure,
and we are all prey to the innocence
of His nature.

Very good poem, Eric, with some subtle innuendo that I suspect is NOT so pure.
