the cries of his blood

the cries of his blood
his murdered brother Abel,
crying out to God,
in pain, for justice
reaching the heart of God…
 
sin, murder, jealousy,
for a crime he committed,
because he was selfish,
because he had fallen short,
not fully honoring God…
 
oh, what pain in that moment,
hearing the words of God,
the mirror of truth before him,
his sin given voice,
“Oh, what have you done?”…
