The Lamb of Nrop

Open up your arms
Or they were thrown apart 
And was crucified
On a piece of wood
Between two thieves
And pierced three times
At once.
Skin torn and ripped apart 
Forced the bitter liquid
Down the mouth to swallow
gasping and choking,
vomiting
And bled all holy royalty
From the weakened body 
And the sacrificial lamb
Was soiled
With the sins of ten billion souls
For all eternity and
She accepted it for 
Paper.

Anne Lise, I got you this is either a porn scene or a crucifixtion, the victim is a woman. Look at the title.
