the cat’s grave in my neighbor’s yard<\/p>\n

She’s too busy mourning abortions to notice the freshness of the soul…<\/p>\n

She prays to her dead pets and pastors that the world will be a better place<\/p>\n

She doesn’t know that her son…<\/p>\n

He is a sinner.<\/p>\n

He was unclean and I had to bathe him in the holiest of all water.<\/p>\n

He liked to scrape the innocence out of little girls who live on our street<\/p>\n

He is free from the weight of his crimes. Now, he is perfected .<\/span><\/p>\n
