wanting of a sin eater

any will left
will be in wanting
wanting of a sin eater, a sin eater
capable of digesting
capable of considering - the volume, volumes of con-jointed col-lab-o-rations
an anointed proponent of protagonistic promise
beyond a porthole of pigeon holes
beyond a percolated fire and brim

capable (stop)
holding (stop)
capable of holding off a rim of fire, flames...raining
repentance resounded
at a gate, the gate; a keeper, a keystone con-verter, con-verting
con-jured up comedy (errored)
as divine, decadent
decency

I read a book a couple of years back entitled Confessions of the Last Sin Eater.....a memoir, the whole concept of sin eating and the sin eaters role has always fascinated me, the ritual of sin eating is said to have been practiced in many parts of the United Kingdom for years and carried over and practiced in the Appalachian Mountains of America .....bkm

Note: hopefully my husband will be home in a couple days.....though there is still all the unknowns to deal with...but all is stable for right now...blessings...bkm
