A Temple Defiled

Occasion presents itself for thought      of values instilled, etched on my heart A molded life, things flesh have wrought      of spiritual divide, two worlds apart The ritual of love between man and wife      when submission of two become as one A hallowed sensation producing life      the miracle of birth, a child of my loin Establish a temple through oath and vows      a sacred chamber consituted for two Explicit dimensions that marriage allows     an entry precise, couples pass through Distorted beliefs, our values evolved     motives of flesh yield to urges of lust A surrender to sin yet problems unsolved     chancing our fate, abandon our trust Reduced to a game, diverted to amuse      this sacred right by God ordained Exploited for gain, desecrate and abuse  along with morals, goes a choice to abstain                              -lamar
