And How Do We Think Of Sin?

We do not mind the poison as
We take another sip.
We do not mind the crushing as
We cast a biting quip.
We do not mind the gasses as
We take another breath.
We do not mind our dying as
We deal in deeds of death.
We do not mind the cutting as
We grasp another knife.
We do not mind the screaming as
We take another life.
We do not mind the sickness as
We eat the rotten meal.
We do not mind the hurting as
We pretend not to feel.
We do not mind the dulling as
We twist his moral code.
We do not mind our losses as we steadily erode.
We do not mind the burning as
We lie upon the coals.
We do not mind the judgment as
We relegate our souls.

And How Do We Think Of God?

We do not mind “eternal” as
We live for what is now.
We do not mind the bleeding as
We see His thorn-crowned brow.
We do not mind His glory as
We turn to chase our own.
We do not mind author’ty as
We seek to claim the throne.
We do not mind his nature as
We throw away his law.
We do not mind perfection as
We magnify our flaw.
We do not mind his mercy as
We bask in our betray’l.
We do not mind foundation as
We fall back on the frail.
We do not mind sov’reignty as
We doubt his pow’r and will.
We do not mind the Giver as
We steal and rape and kill.
We do not mind the holy as
We make our master Sin.
We do not mind redemption as
We turn to death again.
