Confessio

By Sil
(the 1st of July, 2011
London)

I gave Luxuria legs to run on
I was intoxicated
With fumes of excitation
I got lost from time
Couldn’t find the handle on the door
Couldn’t see the gaps in the floor

Oh, God, don’t jab me
With the adrenaline-filled syringe
Administer a lesser punishment
For luxuriating in a reckless binge

I will repent
It was Pandora who opened the box
It was the Dark Priest
Who whispered casually over my shoulder:
“Lying is not one of the seven deadly sins”

Mea culpa
Mea culpa
Mea maxima culpa
