These Swings Ain't For Kids



Your mind's a cornmaze for me,

Heathen with a jungle-gym heart.

Your body's been my playground

And church in equal parts.



Running rampant through your halls,

Bouncing from bed to bed;

Fervent consuming in your favour,

Pouring oil over your head.



On weakened knees I worship,

Converting a saint into your sinner.

Left begging atop bed frames,

Tantric teaching for a beginner.



On our backs is beauty noticed;

Home sought in wrinkled sheets.

Whittle away hours toying

Where the church and playground meet.
