A MEATY SERMON

I was asked to preach
God’s holy word
in a small church
to a small flock or herd
Since I’m good at preaching
About elusive salvation
But not at practicing
Which leads to my damnation.
I commenced with a bang
As is my won’t to do
The congregation did hang
onto my words of wisdom too..
I commenced by addressing them as
Dear Brothers and Sisters
Though they could be called an ass
As I turned up my whiskers
I told them I wished to talk
about a Piece of meat
that with us doth walk
that piece of meat
which was the cause of all sin
that piece of meat
which never lets us win
that piece of meat
the cause of all our problems
that piece of meat
that causes enmity amongst brothers
that piece of meat
which brings a lot of pleasure
that piece of meat
for which we forsake treasure
that piece of meat
which is the cause of divorce
that piece of meat
which does not respect marital vows
that piece of meat
which is mostly outside
that piece of meat
which must be controlled inside
that piece of meat
that can give so much pain
that piece of meat
without which our life is in vain
that piece of meat
that piece of meat
that causes women to fight with women
That piece of meat
That prevents us from reaching heaven
That piece of meat
that separates brothers and sisters
That piece of meat
That makes brothers to fight brothers
that's the Piece of meat
I want to talk to you about
I then paused and looked around
that's the Piece of meat
that's the Piece of meat
that's the Piece of meat
that's the Piece of meat
That I want you all to control
And not let it roll
that's the Piece of meat
That I want you all to control
Dear brothers and sisters of mine
That piece of meat which is thine
that Piece of meat
That I want you all to control
Without any harangue
Is the tongue
My friends
Incidentally, by the way
I know what you were thinking
And if I may
I would like to say
Your corrupted minds are forgiven
For guessing it wrong, dear Men
Now, let’s all say halleluiah!
And now can I get an Amen…
