“You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination”-Leviticus 18:22
I ordered a coffee to go
took a shortcut through an alley
where I saw the devil
sitting on a pile of hot coals,
he promised he could help me
find the perfect match on Grindr
if I promised him my soul, I agreed,
in a flash of blue light
the devil paired me with a grizzly bear
who took me to his house in the woods
fed me salmon and fresh red wine.
But the bear was too big
to share a bed with so in the morning
I left and went back to the devil
he promised me a better match
who let me ride him through the streets
and bought me fancy lamb curry.
But he liked to ride it bareback
so I staggered back to the devil.
He set me up with a man
with a golden star on his forehead
and pieces of gold would fall
out of his mouth. He bought me
a six-course meal and took me
to his mansion but on the way
to the bathroom, I got lost and found a blue rose bush
I filled my pockets with gold
and plucked the blue rose.
I ran back to the devil the next morning
“There are no matches left,” he said.
I handed him the rose.,
“What about you?” I asked.
He pulled me onto the hot coals
and we fell down into hell.
