Communion

Seventh in the "Kibito's Thoughts" series of poems

A/N: This is not meant to offend Christians, I just wanted to point out some interesting similarities. –Rivka

A few days ago

I went down to Earth, depressed,

And happened upon a houselike structure

Called a "church".

I went inside, mesmerized,

And I saw a multitude of mortals

Drinking wine as their god's blood, bread as his body,

And it reminded me of you, my Kaiooshin-sama.

I want to physically have you,

Experience the transcendent, mystical experiences of mortals,

Press my lips to yours, running out of sweet breath,

Feel the warmth of your body against mine.

I want all of you.

I care not if you were disfigured, broken,

Torn into pieces by lunatic followers.

I want your soul, your life, to fade into mine

As we become one in consciousness.

I hope mortals can take in their god, their avatar for what is,

The same way I take in you, sir.

Communion would be a good name for it-

Loving the divine.
