And A Nice Chianti, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter/X)
2 Kings, 6:29
On my son I shall dine
Did you, did you, bring some wine?
No Fruit Of The Loom underwear
But fruit of the womb if you dare
Deuteronomy 28:53, eat flesh medium rare
Jerimiah 19:9 although frog legs are fine
Sons and Daughters flesh are thine
Just remember to bring the wine
Gordon Ramsey, Anthony Bourdain
Julia Child have gone insane
Lamentations 4:10, fava beans once again
Family family barbecue
5:10 Ezekiel too
Finish up, or no desert for you.
Hannibal Lecter’s lullaby
Clarice’s placemat is on high
Just remember to bring the wine.
I’m just a critic, don’t blame me
For the writers of past history
I’m no fan of these gory stories.
(end)
It is one thing to put stories of eating flesh in zombie movies or horror/thrillers in Silence of the Lambs. But to value a book that you base your life’s moralities on and believe in a God that would allow, condone, watch and call it a religion, that confounds me. I see no morality in that if you want to believe that is true.
