JAWS WIDE OPEN
Purity and love is wrapped in flesh,
humaneness given vessels of DNA mesh,
into chromosomes are planted characteristics,
when we cross the lines we become statistics.
We exchange our purity for lusty temptations,
hide it in lies to disguise our sensations,
we have a choice between right and wrong,
but a deep desire is just too strong.
Fear of punishment makes us hide away,
fear of exposure brings shame into play,
we depart from the light into the grey,
use excuses to overcome our dismay.
Deep throat opens its jaws very wide,
deeper into the darkness we slide,
confusion and fear become our partners,
as lies and deceit take us into darkness.
We need no help, did it all on our own,
the truth hits into marrow and bone,
there's only one way to stay in the clear,
cross no lines that will bring shame or fear.
