"chastized" poems
Chastized me, how dare I want.
Your insignificant dilemmas,
The crisis queen has selfishly kept my heart
As I fester in this corner.
I, the jonah, vicariously burning,
I, the ungodly freak, fed your masked scraps.
I, the fool, bathe in your false hopes.
I, the ***** am entitled to no affinity.
Yearning for a place, a moment, une amie.

I kept my hands clean today
No unholy things for me today
I snubbed my neighbor twice
For twice the heathen greeted me
I gave him barbed advice
For each time he had cheated me
I kept my hands clean today
No unpleasant things for me today
I went nowhere where one could find
Sinning folk or those in need
I chastized a beggar who was blind
Accused a friend of pride and greed
I kept my hands clean today
No ungodly things for me today
I avoided adulterers and ******
And gluttons, thieves, and tools
I gave a penny to the poor
And two cents to a fool
I kept my hands clean today
So God, why didn't you bless me today?
