The Clothesline Poem by Bernard F. Asuncion

The Clothesline



The one who has been cleansed and purified
Is like a washed dress now sans grime and dirt;
Yet it has been stained once again inside,
As the smudge of wrong shows no joy and mirth;
Because the cord used is not firmly tied,
The garment falls down on this dusty earth.
The strong and steadfast man will overcome
The world's enticement offered to his palm.
