they go to church

they go to church.
they go to church.
they go to church.
rosaries in hand.
crucifix wrapped around
their necks.
they pray, they confess.
they feel guilty,
then clean.
over and over again.
the human stain.
but they never change.
the get out of jail
free card
is in their hand.
lies,
betrayal, adultery.
stealing, etc.
no commandment left
unburned.
but
they go to church.
they feel better.
let's do it again.
