Purify: Asenaths Confession ...

A pantoum  
 
Out rush my heart  
I confess my trangressions  
My soul i wish i had not offended  
My lies and life seem endless  
 
I confess my transgressions  
In recall i am remprimanded  
My lies and life seem endless  
And on bruised knees i bend  
 
In recall i am reprimanded  
I honeycomb lips from ash  
And on bruised knees i bend  
As if no other, through these ruby lips  
Have passed  
 
I honeycomb lips from ash  
Joseph, I have never spoke of another  
As if no other, through these ruby lips Have passed  
I will have your virgin daughter  
 
Joseph, I have never spoke of another  
False idols have fueled great madness  
I will have your virgin daughter  
Through lips no other has passed  
 
False idols have fueled great madness  
I uttered in hostile prayer  
Through lips no other has passed  
Now i may kiss away your cares  
 
I uttered in hostile prayer  
I am no longer Pharoahs daughter  
Now i may kiss away your cares  
As monotheistic wife apon our altar  
 
Take my thigh without reproach  
My soul I wish I had not offended  
Without your love she would not be bourne  
Out rush my heart
