She refused to walk among those that plead not forgiven.

They were all sinners of earth.

No one clean.

Present in church, still, not exactly present in belief

of a Being.

How could she find rhythm and dance sweetly to such songs that spoke of Death, Sacrifice, and battles not yet won by Divine.

The floor carried cheery feet: leather soles paired with crystal heels.

Not forgiven feet, were these that swayed to honey-sweet psalms sung by a Holy choir.

Their voices sugary, though filled with boundless blue sorrows. Music from blissful muses.

And so, this girl chose to flee this unholy, graceless scene.
