Judge me not by the tarnished name.
or it’s troubled history.
I repudiate the sins against humanity
done in the name of Christianity
I had no part in them.
View me not as a white, middle class hypocrite,
They hate me too.
Whitewashed tombs and vipers dens,
They have become petty, hateful and legalistic.
Toning down the radical,
trying to make safe something that is dangerous.
Stuck in their comfortable cozy boxes
that they have tried to force me in.
They wonder what is wrong.
Praying and begging.
Trying to justify their actions,
They limit and rationalize.
Trying to explain what they blindly cannot understand.
Living in denial
Clinging to their narrow mind set,
Perpetuating a downward spiral.
It will all be made right.
Surely, I am coming soon.
