Blue Bird

On March 11, 2022March 11, 2022 By Trilby YatesIn Romantic

I reached out to the goddess White knuckling it On my knees Rosary in hand Asking for a shiftIn the tide To pull me under Cleanse me of my sins Outed by the guise Of organized religion I admit I am in love With Pope Francis What happens when faith And love collide And all …

Holy Resemblance

On August 21, 2016 By Trilby YatesIn Beat Generation / Wise Ass, Political, Saints or Sinners
