to forgive bin Laden
the one we had so hated
gunned down, now dead
The ancient command of Jesus
to love even our enemies
to leave the judging
of all peoples to God
All of us human
mortals, sinners
all of us straying
from the love
to which we are called
The hard lesson
the story of the Good Samaritan
what it means to be a disciple;
Shouldn’t this guide us
as we contemplate his death
