I would like to share a poem I wrote a few years ago, but is so me. I came up with it when a very old woman came up to me on the side walk and said " Do you know you are going to hell?"
Laughing a little inside I said "No, why am I going to hell?"
"Because you have desecrated the lords temple with all your piercings and tattoos!" She looks so serious when she said this.
I said "I'm not desecrating, I'm decorating!" well that made her mad of course, and she stomped off. Later I wrote this:
You look at me that way
in disgust and disdain
I’m pierced and tattooed
I must be insane
But who are you to judge
when you kneel down and pray
Just because our beliefs are not the same
We are not so different you and I
for we are all the same when we die
This is nothing against religion, merely about judgment in general. Can't wait to share more of what I love and who I am.
