I didn't realize pastors asked for 15 year old girls to dance like strippers on church beam poles until I met you. When I refuse to dance, deny the eager few their chance. End the charade and lay the blame on me.
Push me. Pull me. See if you can fool me. Tangle me up in your rope. Make me the example as you choke on all that shit you shoved down our throats. Quietly glare as I squirm. Though, never becoming your worm, I keep my head up off the ground. I smile as your tears stream down. You can't explain why your hands are stained and my face is turning blue. I refuse to be one of you. Stare. Glare. Eat your flesh that's rare. I roll back up on my stairs and hide behind these pews. I will never be you.
