People...Are...OBSESSED

People...are...OBSESSED,
With adults having extramarital sex.
As if sacrilegious acts have been made.
As if a blasphemousness against God has betrayed.

Sports figures and entertainers,
Outside of their marriages having sex.
Diminishing their prestine images...
That makes a public following distressed.

Yet...
All of us are human beings.
With sexual needs to address.
If consenting adults decide to be naked...
What business is it,
For others to attempt to ridicule and suppress.

People...are...OBSESSED,
Yes!
With adults having extramarital sex.
As if sacrilegious acts have been made.
As if a blasphemousness against God has betrayed.

An eternal legal bond,
Made and broken by two.
Coveting 'thy' neighbor's piece...
Should be left to the courts to undo.
Although in the Bible...
None who 'begot' tied a legal knot!

But busy bodies with 'nobody' have nothing else to do.
And these are the people who pray in pews...
With eyes closed begging for a forgiveness.
While pedophilic priests do as they choose.
Covering up their demonic acts,
Doing exactly what they please!
And with whom.

And we leave those places of wosrhip,
To point self righteous fingers.
With a lingering that despises...
Those of fame we wish to shame!
To proclaim them as dissenters...
Deforming a conformity.
