Who you are Sin
though you were created
your hairs numbered
from the same clay
We stand in judgment
you are to be cast out
who you are an act
as if it was by choice
How do we know
that gay or straight
something of our choosing
or by the hand of Grace
All worthy, holy
all sacred in God’s sight
none of worthy
to judge our neighbor
Needing glasses,
a brace for a leg
assistance with the reading
help with my math
What about my color
my skin or my hair
do I truly choose who I am;
for that I should be damned?
