Sin

To understand this cruel world,
One must only have the mind of
A killer.

There you will find
Their motives,
There reasons,
Their means,
Their secret dreams.

Some do not tread, not wishing to know
And wanting to forget
What they’ve discovered in
Delving into the seedier side of life.

Perhaps…

We are not so easily forgiven,
An eternal judgment –
A true life sentence from which we as
Sinners
Can never be absolved.

Is payment in full rendered for
Our sins
At the hour of
Our death?
