Premium Member The Evil of Good

An excuse we need
to ratify this evil
in existence is,
so many hide behind God
here just to cast the first stone.

Premium Member The First Stone

Silence prevails
as earth drinks
from the chalice 
of the condemned
blood seeps
into the ground.

A bruised face holds
evidence of violent force
dull unseeing eyes 
turned to heaven
as if beseeching
an answer
to why?

Are we so righteous?
have we no sins?
to temptations
don't we fall?
so how can we justify 
and condemn
who among us has the right
to cast the first stone?
