When did lying come so easy?
Second nature to wear a mask?
When did we
Collectively
Amount to this, I ask.
When did hurting come so quickly
As a flash of fist or tongue?
Did it imbed
Inside our heads
With age or as birthed young?
Utmost, can this be rewritten
Overridden, changed, unwound?
Can petty vengeances
Sinners' tendencies
Be peace and love abound?
