modern day christian love
hands embellish the heats brute and might
Flail and diseased, dark and battered they stand.
sweat trickles past chapped lips.
child weeps dry crackles and seeps
cloaked in brown and black,
hair hard and grey
with dust and skin.
Flies take solace in the wounds
and force rapid blinks.
This my friends is the life that surrounds me.
but men have grown to make hearts cold and lifeless.
while we eat and praise God.
and curse him at the same time.
another man on the corner weeps.
Flail and diseased, dark and battered they stand.
sweat trickles past chapped lips.
child weeps dry crackles and seeps
cloaked in brown and black,
hair hard and grey
with dust and skin.
Flies take solace in the wounds
and force rapid blinks.
This my friends is the life that surrounds me.
but men have grown to make hearts cold and lifeless.
while we eat and praise God.
and curse him at the same time.
another man on the corner weeps.
