The church's bathroom looks horrendous.
Brown and yellow stains all over.
I guess it's good to know that even the holiest of us has to shit and piss.
It's great to know that they're still human.
Not out of reach
Not splitting seas
Not made of light (for now)
They're still with us
Breathing, sneezing, coughing, crying.
Dealing with the same bullshit
Hearing the same tragedies
One day they might sit with the saints
Halos properly angled
Elbow to elbow with heaven's finest
For now though? They're one of us.
Filthy.
Smelly.
Unlucky.
Let's chuckle at our small victory.
