We sin.
Then confession’s coin rolls in.
Out bounces sweet can of forgiveness.
We drink it all down with barely a frown
for myrrh-mingled wine’s sour business.
Thirst quenched
brief

unmindful of looming death sentence,
soon
sin-licking lips
forgetting in sips,
rejecting with gall
upon hyssop.
These are all very moving, Dan. Thank you.
Deeply moving page, Dan.
