Dear Flesh

I know your name and….

I gave you my number within minutes of meeting

You alone answer my call when needed

You leave my heart beating even when it’s bleeding

For desire is never fleeting

Hours we relax and unwind

You know a good friend of mine

We combine and talk all the time

Without a need for wine

You are altogether

Mine



To sublime temptations I yield

I want only to touch and to feel

Feel as if this is really real

Hold in my heart this locket of trust

Intimacy without a fuss

Nobody needs to know about us

Nobody does the math

Two negatives always make a plus

Passion is our force field

To your temptations did I yield



The sublime revelation revealed

Every emotion I feel we feel we felt

Causes me to kneel close my eyes

You were svelte and great smelt

How could a heavenly connection open the doors to hell

Well…

Our parts were not written but acted anyway

Drawn by hormones and pheromones

We never prayed it was just a stage set for performance

Scriptures are now my lines of conformance

The lord is my director the one I call on

My producer and agent put in touch with life’s pages

A guy called Matthew at 5, 28



I know I wanted your hand but you must understand

What we had was concentrated

The bread raised but the colour was fading

Shell maintained but substance degrading

I’ve gotta be a man in the face of this temptation

It is with this aching heart my head passes sentence

Confessions and repentance are the partners for this slow dance

Sitting on the side you contemplate future romance

I canst not subject my self to your decadence

Creatures new are my new friends

Anointed actions will lead me to where my director wants the story to end

And so this ends
