A Theory About Sins.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

you have been thinking
about sins
and how they have
remained
unforgiven

who told you that?

think some more
it is you and you alone who is thinking that

that sins are sins
and some remain to be unforgiving
and the list of how
and what ifs
are long like the gown of maleficence

see the dance of life
and join its circle and learn the dance so well
and after that
get out from there

you have taken the joy of
living
and all sins are forgiven.
