Poem: “Ecclesia Mellow”

Ecclesia Mellow

Go and sin, sin on more.
Mercy, my mercy, sin galore!

The joy of love, not the sword,
No division, praise me lord!

An eye offends? That’s OK,
Look again, not away.

Fire everlasting not forever.
Eternal damning, never, never.

“Yes is yes” hurts so much.
“No is no” is out of touch.

No dog vomits, none returns.
No sow wallows, no one burns.

A rigid cross so unreal,
Good news logic, feel, feel, feel.

Go and sin, sin on more.
Mercy, my mercy, sin galore!

The Church says “eternal eternity.”
This Church just won’t do for me.

I need a church so I can sin, no hell;
A mercy church, so all is well.
