Notes About The Poem

CIRCUMCISION-

CIRCUMCISON-

Can’t image, imagine a cut off vision;
Eyes in tears, a placed hair;
Tween eye ball and a tear;

Circumcision
Circumcision is the spiritual and physical,
 Removal of mankind’s fore sin,
Circumcision of the heart;
A sign of the covenant;   
Circumcision
Between God and Abraham;
And every man signifies dedication,
 Purification, unto God; 
Circumcision
Sign of the Covenant;
Symbol of Purity and Separation; 
"Circumcision of the Heart";
_______________________________

Words spoken once was thought
Laryngitis, dry throat can’t talk;
A paragraph cut down, to a sentence;
A sentence sliced to a phrase;
A phrase depicted dissected to a word now hazed;

All accompany to my surprise, can’t believe my eyes;
Adopted we share name not blood, yet we still be kin, human guised;
Adopted we share blood sinner;
Yet we still be kin, more than just fore Sin, foreskin;

We speak life, we smile we grin;
Evil people pollute the skies;
Tears run out my eyes, humanity circumcised;
Transition to New Covenant
Physical circumcision is not required for salvation.  
That faith in Christ now fulfills this requirement, 
The Holy Spirit in the heart replacing the physical cutting of the flesh
Evil people pollute the minds;
Tears run out my eyes, humanity ---circumcised;
