Cry
till your heart bleeds out
into a thousand glass pieces
scattered upon the blood-stained floor,
stained with the roses and thorns
of your past sins
and another’s past offenses,
extending far back
to the first man,
Adam.
Adam wept
for his
sins,
sins that caused the roses
to grow claws,
claws to snatch the clothes
covering Adam’s and Eve’s sins
from the eyes of a God
who sees all
and knows all.
Certainly
He noticed not only
Adam’s and Eve’s sins,
but also
the growth
of the thorns
in the rosebush.
