My Reason | Diane C. Howard

I'm going to go ahead and say

Why I date trifling men

I am going to need him with me

When the world comes to an end

 

Something most people don't know

But the Bible says is true

When it comes time to Rapture

He'll take one out of two

 

So seeing as how I love God

And I believe the word

Standing next to another Saint

Would probably be absurd

More about The Poem...

 

This poem humorously and ironically explores the speaker's rationale for dating "trifling" men. It ties this choice to a religious belief about the Rapture, suggesting that if God takes one out of every two people, the speaker, being a believer, prefers to be with someone less saintly to increase their own chances of being chosen. The poem uses this ironic twist to play with the idea of faith and relationships, blending a light-hearted tone with a deeper reflection on personal beliefs and choices.
