WALTZING THE SNAKE OF TEMPTATION
(a poem by Zachar Laskewicz)
1.
The despicable act of masturbation
Is a proverbial waltz with that snake of temptation;
Such self-serving sessions
Are evil transgressions
Causing nothing but bodily vilification.*
*(deserving of self-mutilation, like flagellation).
2.
To stop it, thank God for repression!
At least, it’s God we can thank for this lesson;
After all it was god
Who spared not the rod
When he offered the chance for confession.*
*(forgiving us of this transgression, among other ingressions.)
3.
Thanks to this human condition
Resisting temptation’s become life’s one true mission ;
Thus it’s God we should thank
Every time we don’t wank
By it’s very not-doing we’re saved from perdition!*
*(there's a place to still fry our proverbial fish on, it's nocturnal emission).
4.
In inventing such a method preventive,
Who’d have guessed God could be so inventive;
For feeding, through kneading,
Those snakes in our Eden
Offering guilt as the one great incentive! *
*(still, like Freud I’d be to the anus attentive, seeing God was so clearly retentive.)
