I will not go get baptized
for I fear the judgment
day.
To live in sin and
descend to the six-foot pit
sits better.
An empty label lingers
until you’re deemed clean
for further consumption.
Our filled label flies
off the tongue like
sour milk.
So come, fellow MSM–
let’s go down to the river
to pray.

So come, fellow MSM–
let’s go down to the river
to pray.
May God have mercy on our souls.
