We all have a drive to it.
'Semen Religionis', was Calvin's term.
Under the influence of utter domination
some submit, and some strive for a coup.
And yet they call this striving for more, 'The fall.'
Thus, we must confess our sins.
Black clad authority,
issues a command
but you chose to be in that space
and you feel cleansed.
On your knees now.
Take a sip.
Through communion, reject the fallen.
Submit to the power of the spirit.
Consume the essence of the saviour.
It is not a surprise.
That the ancestor of the cherub,
is Eros.
It all comes back to it.
Dominate, or submit. This is the essence of God.
This is the essence of man.
