RECIPROCITY...

That you
in your perpetual 
slime
should question my rebuke:

to err is human;
to forgive is divine. 

The Golden Rule
I embrace;

Forgive me 
while I revenge
my crucified race.

And when all is done
and the stale ashes cooling,
remember I learned it all
from your missionary schooling.

So if I were you and you were me
and I did to you what you’ve done to me;

Would that not be
reciprocity?

Thank God 
For keeping me:
Me.
