Purity Ball and a Father’s Plan
I lay out the white dress
she will wear like any bride,
finger the ring, cold in my pocket.
There will be the white rose,
she will place at the foot
of a wooden cross, and marry God.
I will be her boyfriend,
and her dress will flare as she spins
in my arms on pale white legs.
Virginity is a fine wine
that only maintains value
unopened in the cellar.
She will lower her eyes,
a sexless doll sealed
in her original packaging.
