Visitation with the guilty

Proverbs 19:2 

² It is dangerous to have zeal without knowledge,
and the one who acts hastily makes poor choices.

Visitation

Always do what is right … so wrong can sit next to you

It will never leave you … and tries to crawl in your lap

There it will whisper softly … into your listening ears

to tempt you with desires … while hugging your neck

Visitation with the guilty … will not bring innocence

It will not wipe your slate clean … from your self-made past

You are better off to take a leak … against the winds of time

so the fragrance of the splatter … gets you to your knees at last

Maybe you will wake up … and notice the choice is yours

Maybe you will embrace … that death to self brings bliss

Maybe the things that drive you … will loose their power

Maybe then repentance … will embrace you with a kiss
