Tabernacle Series #2 - Rahab's House

YOU said not to unite your body with a prostitute,
but here you are,
inhabiting,
colonising,
co-habitating.

YOU said whoever unites with a prostitute becomes one flesh with them,
but here you are,
loving me,
living in me,
squatting among the darkness and filth.

Woe to me!
I am ruined!
For I am a woman of unclean lips,
a hoarder of horrors,
in a house stacked high with filth.

Burn it down,
cleanse with fire,
remove this tent and build another,
more worthy,
5-star,
a suitable dwelling for the king.
