Sinners 1

Sinners, that's who we all are.

 

In one form or another,

above or below, the normality bar.

 

We've known this forever.

Or that's how it seems ... but admit it?

Oh, never! That would be obscene.

 

Instead, we pick sides,

and create separate teams,

trying to fit in, with shouts and screams.

Look at our Hitlery if you don't agree.

 

My truth is truer! ... No! MINE!

I'm closer to God because of my blood line!

NO!  It's YOU who is wrong!

It's the same old story, centuries long,

I'm getting so sick of this stupid song.

 

On Earth as in Heaven, that should be,

the simple goal we all want to achieve.

Learning from ourselves is done easily.

It's all trial and error, that's how we survive.

but after ten's of thousands of years go by,

that should be enough for us, if we try.

Hi lacy. Nice one.....
You say because of your blood line your closer to god,
Pray tell me which one of your ancestors
Was nailed to the cross?.

Although I'd be irked to lose you as a friend ,
I've read the bible. (Spoiler alert) He dies in the end.
