All of us evil

All of us evil
far from his love
jealous, vengeful
not guided by love
flailing, hurting
hurting those we love
the closest, the first
the fallout of our sin

All of us are flawed

All of us are flawed
failed disciples in this walk
hurting those we love
failing to walk the walk

Claiming the love of Christ
yet hurting those we love
quick to speak in hate
a caustic word alive -

loosed in the world
back to us in time.
