Bless'Ed Are the Gender Bent

Blessèd Are The Gender Bent

Of all the pain and perils of this place to pick on such tormented souls
is simply a disgrace. The sin you are in cannot be your skin. Gender is
fluid flowing as vast and deep as bigotry and just as much a mystery 
coming in His name. That stone you cast has been removed from our
foundation, it weakens us all when you build that wall. The compassion
of Christ taught us to love, your enemy as yourself, to love all.


                                       judgement sent
                                      pious predilection 
                                      broken over bent

Yes, and perhaps some folks are on this earth, born the way they are because God is trying to remind us of that teaching. We are all God's children. Well penned Haibun...glad you tried one.
