How unjust, unkind,
what arrogance, truly,
claiming to know, to
discern,
to define, to presume,
to speak aloud, to throw a
stone,
claiming the limits of God’s
love
that love is conditional
yet given on the cross
love enough, unmerited,
to heal the whole world
to redeem all of us
though we are dust
loving us, without buts,
without exception
loving all of us,
every one of us.
