a color i've never seen before
talks to me about my
problems with men
two steps ahead of me
so i let him lead
let him tell me everything i know
let him face me with a truth
stark as a steeple
leftover from days when believers
flocked in droves to high places
and i thought
maybe we can only be worth
what we're willing to give away
maybe our deaths and our debts
lie latent
until the final tally
maybe i'll always have
problems with men
and no matter what i do
they'll never have anything
to do with Jesus
a color i've never seen before
talks to me about how
i'm the problem
and i laugh
and i try
again
