Of course, the Bible itself isn't a terribly pious text. I strongly suspect that these folks who are so shocked by the snippets of Rev. Wright's sermons shown on TV and YouTube have never read the OT prophets. pmp – Thanks! Of course, the Bible itself isn’t a terribly pious text.

It twists around in us and awakens us to thought and feeling. I hunched that it ambushed you, and your responses to comments seem to bear that out, Dave. Great pleasure to be able to respond to, as well as read your work, Dave! All the best! This is just what spiritual poetry should be–anything but pious!

I guess what bothered me was not so much the prostitution as the hypocrisy. Just like with Larry Craig -- I had no problem with him soliciting for anonymous gay sex, if that's his thing. It's just that he, too, had built a political career out of righteousness. Thanks, Fred and Jennifer.

I really like it. I am saddened by what has happened. I like Spitzer. I believed in him. I think this fascination with sex in our society is morbid. It's just sex. We should legalize prostitution. Think of the tax revenue. A very impressive poem. I really like it.

That's good to hear. And I'm glad to know that this resonated with an Empire Stater; I've only really been following Spitzer's career because I was pretty sure he had a bright future on the national stage, being both a moderate and a reformer. So I was as shocked as anyone by his fall. This was pretty much a freewrite, like a lot of the stuff I post here. Jo - Thanks. jillypoet – Word candy, eh? That’s good to hear.
