Yin and Yang

Yin and Yang
To live
Among heathens
Every saint has a past
Every sinner has a future
So love

Oscar is one of my favourite writers. Your poem has made me think about exactly who are heathens? Why is it thought so bad to be a heathen and more thoughts. I love poems that rattle my brains.
