Your Warnings

Your warnings, truth
spoken in silence
distance unexplained
left on the table

your warnings, anger
unresolved injustice
not the way it should be
within God’s kingdom

your warnings, sorrow
the struggles remaining
for you remained silent
when it was time to speak

your warnings, love
but as yet unrequited,
love an offering,
yet left on the table

Your Warnings
May 30, 2014
not my place to speak
May 30, 2014
speak truth to power
quote attributed to Edmund Burke,
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil
is that good men do nothing.”
