I give you
I give myself for you
Break me cut me
Eat me and devour me

A shovel full of snow
Or a mound of dirt
Tell me you're the real Jesus
Not a look-a-like charismatic

Penetrate my skull
Steal my father from me
Through this blindness I cannot see
The mystery that leaves me on my knees

If I can see through myself
That love that discriminates
Veggie mind complacent domination
I truly am not at all

When the violence turns against
Death in ashes of corruptible love
And love love love love love
Fool with complete unacceptable control in mind

I don't want your issued presence
I was born without it
Force yourself on me
Beneath an organic me

Lets find out the meaning of coward
May blood mark the beginning of a new day
A few phone calls and a shower
Denial in its finest

Craig.... I love this.... normally I enjoy a different kind of flow but the different kind of flow fits the style of this poem so I really enjoy it.
