Heavenly

No human lacks

Iniquities

Least of all

Our enemies

And we shall pay the

Penalties

For all our evil

Tendencies

So

Why should we harbor

Enmity

When Yahweh shows us

Lenity

Why not extend His

Clemency

To those who lack in

Empathy

We’re made in His

Identity

To share His graceful

Pedigree

Made to pass down His

Legacy

Of dignified

Integrity

Such a grave

Necessity

Embracing His

Heredity

Instead

We choose such

Levity

In viewing love

Subjectively

His Love

Described

Ineffably

Yet

We are doomed

Inevitably

To carry out our

Destiny

As wicked souls

So helplessly

So

I am pleading

Desperately

That you will drop your

Weaponry

Of worldly ways and

Pedantry;

Begin to seek the

Remedy

Our future rests so

Heavily

On treating others

Preciously

So

Please destroy the

Leprosy

Inside that thrives on

Jealousy

Absorb the Bible

Trenchantly

Please don’t do so

Hesitantly

To mend this world’s

Complexities...

Preferably

Presently

Our time runs short

Regrettably

We need to act

Intrepidly

To fix this grave

Discrepancy

Before our life’s

Expectancy

Please don’t wait for

Eventually

To spread love

Exponentially

For

Once we achieve

Successfully

Dismantling

Inequity

We earn the right

Respectably

To claim the title,

“Heavenly.”
