High Stakes Poker

Sex is back alley cats

Working out their appetites.

Love is a risky business

As ever two can enter.

But true love

Transports the soul

To the extremes of reason and faith

Where all things are subject,

Body, mind, soul, and spirit

Laid willingly on the altar

As sacrifice...

Not of appeasement

But rather of consummation

Of all godly ordinances of eternal logos

Spoken before the foundations of the world.
