in scherzo
long-winded, still he makes his move
in scherzo--spiry, wooing, dancing,
moving closely in to take her hand, he says

you are so beautiful, and I've waited lifelong for this
cause your face has lit my way to Heaven...

but she feigns her ignorance through coy and madness
'cross that pretty face she's wielding.
well, her feeler words hint kiss me, just the same
her heart agrees and meets his lips so lambently.

come away with me, angel...beautiful, heavenly runaway
he says, grinning only inches from her kiss's reach

Thank you
You're washing my feet
How can you bow down to make me clean
You see right through the veil
And love beyond disease
You infect me
by piercing me with mercy
I thank you for Your mercy

You say You can renew my mind
Jesus make me new tonight
I'm in love with You, Jesus
I am so in love with You
You love between the walls I've raised
And you gently pierce me through
You have loved me though I spit in Your face
I'm so in love with Jesus
I am so in love with You

Thank you, c.c.c.v., for opening my eyes!

Renew your mind
Your head is vacant,
mind is taken up with travesties
to stimulate a fantasy.
Simpleton, you hold your head up high
yet, never raise it up
from where you feed your mind.
Hell-bent on a lowly creed:
an intimacy, a god,
a crotch, in all its sovereignty,
pillaging anything you see,
obeying every selfish whim.
You make any passer-by
a slave to (insert-fantasy).
You are the master of your prison,
yet a slave to your body,
marked by scars of inanition from a mental harem
fighting Solomon for first,
in a master/slave battle royal
packed with clever irony.

Hope to never be without you
Cling to me.
Come away with me.
Follow me home
to our future,
to our life together.
Lovesick with you,
yet I am feeling better,
now that I know you'll settle
down with me.
Stay with me,
marry me.
Cling to me.
