The Sinner, Or The Sin
are we the judge,
or the judged?
the sinner, or the sin?
holiness, or brokeness,
the fire,
or burning branches?
do we hate
the wrong in others?
or the wrong in ourselves
we cannot see?
do we point
like bare branches
to the moon?
or lie on the ground,
and rot?
who do we change?
where do we begin?
are we then,
the sinner, or the sin?
