repentance. By Jenny S.


last night i was drinking Jameson
at an irish pub, laughing at the big cross
hanging on the wall above our table,
thinking about how much i sacrificed
to be able to afford the good stuff


and today satan is sitting beside me,
laughing at the sight of me kissing
your porcelain ass
thanks a lot, god
