Observing Religion
She says she prays.
Kneels down.
Talks to God.
She's been searching for forgiveness.
If God does not forgive her,
she has no reason to stop.
If God does forgive her,
she can finally get off her knees.
She doesn't know life
without dogma.
She'll eat the cracker,
drink the win.
Until Christ finally shows,
helps her up,
wipes his body and blood
from her lip, and
convinces her that forgiveness came
as soon as she asked.
I think
life is harder
when you need a savior.
