The Butterflies

The butterflies winged insects of nature Stained within a glass Within my always forever home Church…… from a place full of prayer It beckons me from the altars It enraptures only my gaze The butterflies Its an art….. the permaneat forever ink Embedded on the skin of my white-tanned ankle The butterflies Who I strive to fly towards Their enchantment Untainted by a humans touch A care free demeanor Unsettling the sweet crevice inside of me ….. a jealous sin thats hidden the butterflies……
