Cherreads

Chapter 3 - Father Mary

I need her to cry out for me

To sing my name like a gospel

She can save me maybe

Like a droplet from the sanctity of the church

It'll clear my throat and no longer will I be burdened with the voice of a nymph

I'll be a minotaur

I'll be a selkie

And maybe father Mary will love me again

Oh how i crave to tear the flesh in my back

Slit the very meat of my being

From the bone

I'll tear it out and make my room

I'll tear out my beautiful wings and God will the heavens blind

The blood will run clear as cherub tears and I'll finally get rid of that aweful taste in my mouth of being human

I'll forget my shame

I'll remove my problem at the source

I'll redirect the way lyres are strung and I'll cry so loud banshee ears will hum

And I'll be happy forevermore

Once more i wish for him to see me

I wish for father Mary at my side

Lover or nyx

I want to gaze into his giant eye and drink the Weeping spring

So I may hold his waist and clutch him close to mine

And he will allow me

Because what shame is there in being man

Man is strong and powerful

Nothing more powerful flows through my body

The course stream that is adolescent life

Than my love for another man

Nothing is more strong than my love for father Mary
