English Poetry Assignment #5: Nature Poem "Sex."
Nature is beauty
Alive and awake,
But a civic duty
One part to forsake.
Bushes are angels
And so are the trees
But cursed are the angles
Of birds and of bees.
The 'Original Sin'
We need to survive
Without copulation
You'd not be alive.
We go on to church
And for holiness seek
but when we get the urge,
humans are weak.
So go to confession
And lie to the darkness-
The taint of our 'sin'
Has already marked us.
So riddle me this:
What good is religion
But to weave an abyss
No human could live in?
