+--------Taylor Swift And The Tower That Never Was
Taylor, the girls in my life are a united band of
haughty peoples who presume to own earth,
of one tribe and one tongue, with intentions
to erect a grandiose monument to memorialize
my singleness. They use dating rejections as
dense jagged brick burned thoroughly. Fake
scaffolding smiles, dubious compassion
like slime used for morter! And extended
loneliness is truly a city and tower that would
pierce Heaven’s veil with violence, prying too
deeply into love's secrets it cant understand.
Oh babes, wont you come down from Beauty’s
throne on high for me, your blue eyes
transfixing like cherubim playing harps
on clouds? Confound their plans with two
cups of coffee in hand. The sound of our kiss
at a cafe would be God's imperative
in baritone scattering their sick desire
as babbling speech all over the world,
forever cursing the damned tower. .
----- Genesis 11:1-9
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
