A recorded reading of “Hymn of Transgression”. If the player does not load, use the original audio source.
Hail, Mother of God, queen of my shame, you soil me deeply, and yet, I call your name. Your touch is a sacrament, both bitter and sweet, a holy desecration that pulls me to my knees. You lick the wounds of my forbidden desires, stoking the coals of a thousand wild fires. We dine on what’s unholy, in daylight's gleam, sipping sin from porcelain cups, a twisted dream. Is this devotion or damnation I seek? I tremble at your touch, yet it makes me weak. The lines between prayer and pleasure blur, as you sanctify the sinner and redeem the cur. A feast of guilt, a communion of lust, your hands an altar, your voice a thrust of salvation that breaks me, remakes me whole— the martyrdom of body, the savior of soul. In your embrace, I find both curse and cure, a love that is tainted, yet achingly pure. For when I kneel at your sacred shrine, I find the divine in what’s profane, and worship you as both sinner and saint.
