This has got me entirely at a loss. 'Sectional view/ in abnormal vice' had me thinking about the human reproduction diagram they use in schools over here, but I'm probably barking up the wrong tree. Seth? The third brother?
Yours, off to reread Genesis...

Indeed, Cheryl, I don't think "Sam" would be as effective. I think Mick could be the vicar -- disguised.
Getting it off the top of our heads was part of the challenge and so you've got an excellent response, here, Mick. Subliminally literate... How about that? |

It made me laugh, though I don't know why and I have no idea what it's about but I love the language used and the image-rich brevity of it. I think it's the name Seth that made me laugh.
But is it about an old vicar called Seth or the Egyptian god Seth, god of CHAOS? or something else entirely?
Who can say? hah. The more I read about Seth of Egypt fame, though, the more I could relate it to him.
I like a poem that gets me to thinking, sucha s this one has.
Good. |

| Nice and mysterious, Mick! We could be reading about a preacher getting replaced because of a morality mishap, or it could mean something else entirely. |

| Very nice use of the challenge. DD's cryptic is a great adjective. Another great effort, Mick. |
