about the mirror we all gaze into
John 8:7

Returning the stone
I pause to wonder—
am I the reflection
or the mirror?

For what turns me off
to your God is not your God
but you—

Judging all that’s around you—
inspiring in me,
a judgment of you.

So that
believer or not—
what really matters

is that I partake
in the
inconsistency
too.
