The Encounter

I always wondered what I'd do
when at last I'd come face to face; with you
I just knew I'd tremble and shake
from all of my past heartache
I went for a dance
seeing you; not a chance
you hadn't been here before
now you decide to walk through the door I always leave prepared
nothing like the pain
nothing can ever compare
That is when I saw you; your face
it's funny; because out of my chest
my heart didn't race
We said hello
how have you been
You reached to hug me
I couldn't resist; you see
That is when I felt the fierce wind
It went through me so fast
although long it didn't last
I felt it move through me like lighting your grip had become more tightening
It felt so right
with that wind though it was like a hard bite
Something moved through me
I knew; this was yet another game you see for I was dealing with you
We stood under the light in the
middle of the night
It flashed before my eyes
suddenly I remembered your lies
You thought that you'd have some fun not thinking I'd remember all that you
have done
You gently kissed my lips
wrapped your hands around my hips
For a moment; I took it all in
I let this little game begin because I knew with the feel of that wind this
time I would win
>From your arms and lips I drew back
You looked as though you had been smacked
It's my turn now
bet you're wondering with me how
Well you see
it's my turn
I am free
I'll watch you burn
Didn't think I could do it; be so strong
Well I am - so guess what - I proved us both wrong
Yes I have found myself - after all this time
No my heart is no longer yours -- it is mine ........

33 Things (not) To Do In Church

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) During Communion, when handed the wafers, declare loudly: "No thanks, I'm a pagan."

2)When the minister invites the congregation to pray, pull out a drum and start chanting.

3)Make change from the collection plate.

4)During the sermon, keep raising your hand.

5)Keep referring to Jesus as "God's Bastard".

6)Get "the spirit". (This works best in Catholic or Southern Baptist venues)

7)While the rest of the congregation is singing "Michael Row the Boat Ashore" try to start rounds of "Row, Row, Row your Boat".

8)Ask if the communion wafers come with dipping sauce. If anyone answers "No" pull out a bottle of honey mustard.

9)Vomit.

10)Ask to sing in the choir. Pick your nose the entire time.

11)Same as #10, but spontaneously sing The Vatican Rag.

13)Same as #12, but add Silly Putty.

14)Keep bringing up the Spanish Inquisition.

15)Wash your hands in the holy water fount. (Hint: Bring your own soap)

16)Fart. Loudly. Blame it on the little blue-haired lady sitting in front of you. Repeat often.

17)Tarot readings during Sunday School.

18)During the invitation, step into the aisle, walk halfway to the front. Stop. Change your mind. Turn around and run, screaming frantically, until you're outside.
