On Again; Off Again Grooms
by Laura-Lee Rahn
Cowering in your rooms
While Impending Justice Looms
Running on Holy Ghost fumes.
The On again; Off again Grooms
Purposely you return to Sin's Hole
Playing odds like moral Wack-a-Mole
Marco Polo! Marco Polo!
Where did Grace go?
God's riches you've been flaunting
While Destruction you've been taunting.
Carnal fringes you've been haunting
Now judged and found wanting.
Undoing words of false tender
Deleting nights of surrender.
Hung over from Love-Bombing Bender
Behold the Great Pretender!
Not letting candle ends meet
Or from rushed proposals retreat
Won't restore the path to Mercy's seat
Only repentant tears on scarred feet
