Autoplay

She tells tales
of all the sins

she has committed
(adding on an extra flourish)

to impress
the priest.

She the innocent
capable only of loving.

She asks me if
“...picking your nose is a sin? ”

“Well, it’s not a mortal sin
but.. why? ”

“All during confession
the priest was picking his nose.

and when he gave me
one Our Father & three Holy Mary’s

he looked
at it

and
ate it! ”
