stained glass saint


see how i glow

in the light of glass gods

divinity washing over filth.

 

my soul,my body

a sin,an abomination-

unsalvageable. 

 

drown me in holy water

purge the impurity,

the influence of the devil. 

and when life is gone from me

i am clean. 

 

am i holy now? 

o saint peter,am i worthy to enter kingdom heaven?

Mangled-

but pure and sanctified,

here on the church floor?
