Chastity vs. Lust

Unrequited wonder at the indeterminate line

which lies betwixt lust and chastity

of this endless battle that I can call mine

I fear the only end is calamity

The chaste and pure like my former self

secretly fantasize deep seeded wonders

Restrained only by the concept of Dante's h**l

their carnal instincts they do so quell

Lustful desires of present time

the sweet satisfaction of heightened senses

and the victory that this too is mine

my only sin is climbing God's fences

The sole difference of sin and virtue

the willingness to indulge in the joys of the flesh

and admittance to the human error

test God's boundaries, if you dare.

  2. you're  a born peot, Melissa.

  3. Simply delightful. I really enjoyed the line about "climbing God's fences". It was surprisingly allegorical.
