Saints and Sinners
All thorns seek turning toward the white cloud
To bloom in some green blue and pink flower
And feel the touch of human black eyes loud
Or become leaves moistened in the shower
So do sinners as their compensation
To look like the blue sky and smile likewise
But to most it is a remote ocean
A few can get those crystals of peace ice
This way some may be like Saint Teresa
Others remain both a saint and sinner
As dictated by their amygdala
Some seek healing some himself a healer
We are amalgams of sinner and saint
A black and orange in an image quaint
