Rahab's Daughter
She is loud and defiant
her feet never stay at home;
now in the street, now in the squares,
at every corner she lurks.
She comes with much enticing
her words never faltering;
now in my head, now in my soul,
in every crevice she roams.
Inside, walls painted white with
innocence long forgotten;
now in her room, now in her bed,
continuing tradition.
Trapped alone, made a trophy
another one to display;
now locked within, now locked away,
longing for what used to be.
She was loud and defiant,
my feet should have stayed at home;
now in the street, now in the squares,
at every corner I look.
*Stanza 1 -- Proverbs 7:11-12*
That's all for today. I'll update soon.
Maybe.
