VOYOUR

I grew up knowing very little about the divine.
I was young, not knowing any holy rights
Playing “show me yours” with a girl in first grade.
The next day she said we couldn’t do it again
Because Jesus didn’t want her too.

I didn’t know who Jesus was
Or who people think he is
So I said, “Jesus isn’t here and you don’t have to tell him.”

We didn’t play it again.
The shady area under the slide could not shut out the gaze of god.
Why does Jesus really care who you show that thing too?
