Why is Divinity So Sinful? Virginia Salter Why is divinity so sinful when at its root, it’s divine? Why would something so luscious be defining and so seldom kind. It eats at one’s teeth and amples one’s belly it clogs up one’s veins and turns one to jelly. It turns one’s discipline to the epitome of wuss; it sets up a todo making one sour puss. It makes one a liar when sanity’s sought telling oneself it’s only fatt’ning if bought. Now aren’t all things good that the good Lord created and shouldn’t they all be well celebrated? Combining the beauty of things of the earth can fill up one’s mouth with moments of mirth. Why should this mirth be so explosive in size to land on my hips and enlarge well my thighs? Christmas goodies have been conjured for all to extol the coming of Christ to amend for the fall. Should we relish each divinely made fruit without needing to don an extra-large suit? © December 2, 2000 |

I don't know, but this sure reminded me of the great divinity my Aunt Bea made. Oh, God, I want it. It melted in my mouth!! What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |

Yes, just the perfect divinity is so much only a memory. My Dr. wants it to stay that way, too. ;o{ |

Good question...it's so hard to shut down the eating mill at this time of year...but those larger suits cost more... what do you do? I think a little less of divinity's prosper would be a huge help.....maybe!! I enjoyed this very much!! |
