we sewed the wild oats on asunder ground
they grew tall as trees but fruitless
we peeled the bark from some as parchment
wrote poems for harlots with our seed
named them as saints and angels in our wills

we read psalms to the white stones of memorial
funny how echoes don't need sides to reply
anything still standing or standing still
can reflect on those things laying or lying
even those things trying to push up from under

we buttered on our tattoos to make them new
and waxed on our metal altars to give them glow
so when god looked down from jerusalamwood
he would appreciate our resulting fornication
and how we used his ores and gems like wet handles

pulling us into revelation from where we came and went

I think God loves the ways you use His gifts and "pull Him into revelation" ...

He sees beyond the apparent human weaknesses, always knowing of the underlying beauty power.
