temple

—

tap tap, tremble tremble

your body is a temple

 

tap tap, tremble tremble

you can clean this filth,

replace the stones

your body is a temple

 

tap tap, tremble tremble

he can visit,

but he can’t stay here

your body is a temple

 

tap tap, tremble tremble

you can endure this

just hold your breath

your body is a fortress

 

tap tap, tap your feet

move your hips

no harm in dancing through it

 

tap tap

“temple”
