Sex Tapes

Sodom and Gomorrah
Has nothing on us
So we are promoting
That type of sexual content
Where our young girls 
Feel it's OK
To be random 
With their bodies
It's OK for them
To perform in such tragedies 
What a travesty
A mockery of love
And it's profundity 
What an outright disrespect 
To all of our humanity
Do they not know
That their bodies
Is the temple
Of the Lord
Do they not know 
No...they don't
We as a society 
We have all failed them
We have failed 
So miserably
I wonder 
Sadly
Is there any remedy
Is there any hope 
How do we undo 
How do we unsee
How do we forget
These images 
That have insulted me
That have haunted 
My daydreams 
How do we correct 
After this wound 
That got planted
And caused me such agony
How do we as a society
Even begin to heal
I cannot withstand 
The descriptions
Of their action
Least yet
To play the images 
Of their sinful interactions
I wonder if they know
What they have done
To themselves
And to their futures 
I wonder if they know
How they have crumbled
And been scattered
Like ashes
All over everywhere
Infesting and infecting
Generations to come
Who told them
Their actions were permissible 
Who inspired this kind of 
Inconceivable trouble
Who sat and made 
That deal with the devil
I come not to judge 
I come not with a gavel
I come not with a shovel even
I come not from any heaven
But I do come
I come to beg forgiveness
I come with prayers
And my Bible
I come even if just
To say
I am sorry 
But we are in deep trouble 
Maybe I am not the answer
But I am hurting 
For my little sisters
For my people 
And so I want to sit
With you
And offer my condolences 
And not say much
But be there
So you know
That if you ever want to speak
I will listen
And I will hold your hand 
And maybe
We can get past this
Get past this together
