Who Should Be Used

who should be used

sin seems to be like some sediment
ending up becoming an impediment
in life that will try to hold you back
when you were making a wisecrack

it could be cunning cutting remark
to a forest fire soon sets the spark
a big one and is roaring and raging
as if an animal you could be caging

animals try to walk back and forth
from east to west south and north
at least they are not on a long list
of animals once here now missed

my poem may be quite confusing
a sin when animals are misusing
down long path are we being led
use people as an example instead
