The Wedding
You asked for nothing.
That's what i gave you.
Ash for ashes, dust for dust.
Your trust is touching, but misguided.
Bride, I'll be yours for one night.
I wonder, wonder really what you saw in me --
Not your type at all.
And all the angels hold their breath as my eyes rest
Upon the pretty girl who leads the choir.
Cry out their disgust for me,
They're crying for my bride
Who smiles in white, does not suspect my next move in the game.
The game "will honor you and cherish you"
A game "share my worldly goods"
A game "'til death, when we're parted"
Only words don't mean a thing.
Think of ways to run.
The sun paints patterns on the stained-glass windows.
Widows in their Sunday best reflect about when they, too, were brides.
Can't hide their feelings,
Stealing seconds from an age they'll never see again.
Again "with this ring I pledge myself"
Again "I do. I do"
Why do we have to be so humble,
Mumble words we never mean?
It's obscene, the ultimate obscenity.
Serenity on Sundays, the stars on Sundays.
Smiles on straight and maybe one day rewards will be there for us
Just for us in heaven.
Just for us amen amen....
The end.
