I see where your loyalties lie

Mr. Hell Preacher.

They lie with darkness, and hate

Not with light and love.

You say that what I have done is wrong, and a sin

that I will go to Hell for my 'crime'.

This is not the 16th century

where in order to get into heaven you put in a good word for me

and I have pay you to keep that good word

Yet you seem to forget the second greatest gift he ever gave

the power of free will

If he gave us that precious gift, then I don’t think he minds what we do

so long as we do not hurt anyone else in the process

Your hatred will not touch me Mr. Hell Preacher.

why do you have a say where I will or will not go after I am dead.

I certainly don’t, so why should you.  

You say that I've ruined the temple that God gave to me

then why do we have such beautiful buildings

with stained class, hand carved statues, and grand organs for the choir

if what you say is true then we should gather outside with nature

 where we would be closer to God,

or in a building with nothing in it with no color on the walls

no windows to see out of, no luxuries.

You have decorations for the temple

So why can't I.

Why do you preacher damnation, darkness, and hate.

When Jesus preached love, light, and kindness

I have done nothing to you

so why do I receive this evil message of hate.

Your hatred will not touch me Mr. Hell Preacher.

You say I should be shunned,

 that I am a leper for what I have done

If I am a leper then it was you who infected me

through evil, hatred words.

If I am a leper

your taint put it there.

I have been told by you and others like you

that I would not make a good companion, girlfriend, wife, or even a good mother

I would not care for you if you were sick, hurt, or alone.

that I would drop you like a dime, and hurt you because you are not like me

because apparently having ink on your skin and manmade hole on your body

means you have darkness in your heart  and soul.

You don’t know me,

how would you know what I can and cannot do or even be.

your hatred will not touch me Mr. Hell Preacher.

No one knows if they will be a good mother or not, but I will try my very best

I will teach my children that being different is ok

not to be feared, judged, or shunned.

I will teach them love, light, and kindness.

I will not let the words of the Hell Preacher to taint my precious gifts

If receiving the word of God means I have to be subjected to these evil words

then this is no place for me

 I will not let you take the good things I have and turn them to dust.

For you do not know anymore how to preach words of good

all you know is evil, for your light and kindness dried up years ago

Your hatred will not touch me Mr. Hell Preacher

there's the door

I will find someone who preaches love, light and kindness.

I will not be turned to the path of damnation, darkness, and hate

Your hatred will not touch me Mr. Hell Preacher.
