Unbaptized Inside Us

Without religion,
  where would we hide 

What would be our reason,
  could souls justify

What would excuse the killing,
  cleaning deaths stain away

What would forgive tomorrow,
  for the sins of today

Without preaching dogmatic,
  what weight to our words

While unbaptized inside us
  —awaits the true Lord

(Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2016)
