The Web Poetry Corner - Richard Betts Jr. - Sins

Sins

by

Richard Betts Jr.

The sacred hoop is broken,
The center is no longer whole,
The circle has been shattered,
By the blackness of your soul.

You slew the animals,
And destroyed the loving land,
You turned raging rivers,
Into streams of scorching sand.

You were the savages,
Who slaughtered everyone,
You killed the moon and the stars,
And even murdered the sun.

Everything died around you,
Nothing in your clutches could flourish,
And where there is no vision,
The people shall surely perish.

You crucified the people,
For their heinous sins,
Found guilty . . .
Because of the color of their skin.
