looking down
then looking up
at stained glass skies
penitence humility breaching the distance
sodomy airbrushed out
the fucking forgiven
neutered dreams on a cushion of bliss
because of all this
and underneath the spirit screams with mere respect.
I don't do church anymore - I'm a 'recovering catholic' - I like this very much!!
Harry, I feel that a full conversion is overdue ....
thanks for commenting. Whatever is over there, I think those are human concepts!!
Stu, Don't bug me, man! The passing of wind is a good analogy and highly embarrassing for the deliverer no doubt. Is there humour in church ? Cynicism never bodes well for the aspirant.

Ray,
Tell me where your church is, quick! In mine they have a Guy nailed up on a wooden cross (he doesn`t look a bit happy)and every now and then a priest gets up on the pulpit and blissfully cushions me soothing little bits of information about Death, Judgement, Hell and Heaven.
Your place sounds much more amenable :)
ray i like your angry side. i call it 'red ray'. i am also enjoying these shorter pieces. the naughty word stands out like a fart in a silent sermon. excellent.

Thanks for your input Vicki. I don't do church either, but weddings and christenings oblige us on the odd occasion.
Interesting that you have "lapsed" as they say. I suppose you couldn't confess this in the church itself - your membership having run out as it were. !
