Church and State

I found all the images here were bound to business,
(I needed it altered)
So I spread my legs and drew them in like scissors (more than once)
I cut at the nerve so the rest just ruptured from sensation,
the body's gated jungle resort, I told the man
(it was a nice exercise but it had nothing to do with my life)
Take me someplace, lush and humble but, Now!,

the leisure hurts me (retaliation) like a newborn
Like just after birth you start to wonder if you'll ruin
what you created like you've been--

Fix me, jesus, fix me
