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

Because we are so human,
It is important to realize,
that it is more important to try to be fair,
than always reaching that lofty goal.
After all,
"Ye without sin, cast the first stone."...

Who is without sin,

let them cast the first stone!

Why do you worry about the thorn in another persons eye,

when you have a beam in your own?

No one is perfect,

no one other than JESUS AND GOD THE FATHER,

Pluck the beam out of your own eye,

then maybe you will be able to see clearer!...

Acidic Tongues
Written: by Tom Wright
6/11/2018

It’s easy to stand on the fringes and complain,
While vehemently objecting to another’s view;
A dissenter casting stones at things of disdain,
Destroys no quicker than our acidic tongues do;


“Let him who is without sin cast the first stone;”
John 8:7

Acidic Tongues Said, Stone Her
Written: by Miracle Man

It’s easy to stand on the fringes and complain,
While vehemently objecting to another’s view;
A dissenter casting stones at things of disdain,
Destroys no quicker than our acidic tongues do;


“Let him who is without sin cast the first stone;”

He asks for drink he asks for bread,
Some give love some turn their backs instead,
"Alcoholic" words of stone thrown towards his head,
"Those free from blame cast the first stone" a man once said,
Does it take faith to pass him by or to reach down and offer a hand?
We all get lost from time to time that is all that we need to understand.
Christ Love 
In this way we are free....

No human justice is without flaw,
no law has suffered strain,
when mercy presides over court
in favor of its name.

The guilty thus be sentenced fair,
justice win the day,
pettiness shall be put to rest,
and evil lose its way.

Cast the first stone, if it must be,
so saith what is right,
but cast it truly, not in rage,
let justice rule, not spite....

Why? What evil have they done?
Who would harm daughter or son?

As a nation we blindly and carelessly vote
for those who throw them from life’s boat.

But Christ, didn’t you say “Let the little children come to Me.”?
What is it even your supposed followers can’t see?

Your babies in the womb are afraid, condemned and alone.
Ask your Christians Jesus, “Who will cast 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?...

If I confess to my greed, shallow heart and ignorant soul
call me a liar.
My heart was stolen, so call me the thief.
If I burn the innocents of a humble child
bury me in slander.
Call me a bastard and cast the first stone.  Leave me alone with my company.
Scream my name and curse the devils work.
Bury me alive and shed tears at my funeral
my tombstone shall read;
The Perfect Imperfection......

“Let he who has never sinned, cast the first stone” 
~ John 8.7


To be love enabled
Earth life is optimal
We’re spoilt for choice
In this dualistic realm
Where sharp contrasts
Pose to us a question
That within the lucid dream
Do we resolve all conflicts
By love and love alone

If not, then we are reborn
Upon earth again and again
Until the lessons imbibed
Are within heart assimilated

Called, 'Woman of Shame'
Living life as she knew how
Men secretly desired her,
Women - gossiped; jeered
No one offered true friendship
Not one cared to ask her why.

Stones gathered in hands
The good 'Rabbi' intervened...
He who has no sin, he said,
Please, cast the first stone.
As each one stole away, he turned,
"Go in peace and sin no more".

I am starting to like Freddie
At least he is steady
He may enjoy the drink
He may bring Liverpool to the brink
Honesty is all you will get
Even if his heart is scorched and bled
He has that iconic ironic smile
His verses crosses the hippocratic oath
From veins his prose flow
His love is pure his demons proudly on display
His bitterness feeds the infinite glass
Of the waiters last call
His words may bite spewing spittle and spite
Alas, who I ask, shall cast the first stone?...
