Only dirty girls do it, legs open
wide as the prophet's parted sea.
They'll suck you in, boy, just like Samson,
leave you chained to a pillar
with your eyes put out, you'll see.
They wipe their mouths with
the back of one hand and laugh.
The Devil drives a shiny red car, wears a, suit. Struts around here like he is somebody.
Never spent a day with his hands
IIn honest dirt.
Got a big glass eye always be watching
you. He'd take your soul but for Jesus.
'
And Jesus is the fire that lives
on the tongue of a black leather belt
coiled around the hand for effect.
'
For by his stripes we all are healed
women and children first.

Blasphemous.
If it was against Muslims they would send you a fatma by mail,
their daggers later.
Why to those in the West trample holiness in the dirt like swine.
If you want to write a sexual poem, why bring the Lord into it.

Frank. I find your interpretation fascinating.
I don't think there is any blasphemy in poetry.

Dear Frank. I perceive you to be a man of deeply held beliefs. That's great and I respect you for it.
Your religious views are inappropriate in this setting, especially when you insist on inflicting them on others.
I wouldn't come to your church and expect this poem to be well regarded. But I am at it at your church.
While we are at it, the poem is about the indoctrination of a young boy by a rigid father. The father sees the world much ad you do apparently, and reinforced this view with extreme corporal punishments in the name of the Lord.
I welcome all criticisms and commentary on the MERITS of the work.
We can have a theological discourse another time and another place, but not u det one of my poems.
