I
met God at a party once
at
Eric’s place
You know, that
guy with the horse tattoo
who
wore jackboots everywhere
Eric had a keg of beer
there was a band called The Locusts
they
were playing “Louie Louie”
my
dress was red and my hair was piled up high
and
God flirted with me
shamelessly
in a room as white as science
he gave me honey and a needle
in
sweet pink clouds I kissed him
he told me he'd been waiting for this moment
all his life
I said: All your life and he said well, both
The
Locusts ended with “Sweet Jane”
the way the Cowboy Junkies do it
I
was young and so naive
and though he promised he would call
I haven't talked to God since
that night at Eric's place
when my white soul first
kissed the mouth
of sin.
I miss Him
Bad
