I enter the sterile room
The scent of incense masks the perversion
I slip my arms through the veil, reaching for security
Embraced by a being playing God
A sickness comes over me as the twisted ritual plays out
I look at my Husband; he is smiling
Anxious to receive his reward

Refusing the oath
I am taken to another floor
The room is draped with burgundy
My garments are removed
The Elders fantasies fulfilled
Their eyes say what they are thinking
One of the Elders begins to read in a tongue I have not heard

My husband responds saying Elohim, Elohim
Then a young woman enters the room
My husband calls her by name
She speaks to him using the same foreign words
On the altar she lays a dagger wrapped in linen
Through your death another will be sent
Cleansed by your blood

I bring the dagger to my chest
Awakened by a voice calling my name
Sweat pouring from my body
The familiar bed comforts me
Standing in the doorway
In a soft voice he says
We will go to the temple today

We needs more of this 'round here.


Hope to see more.
