The Verdict


This is the verdict.

It is written down so that there will be no question.

A sign of brightness came into the world,

a blaze of brilliance.

The radiance of goodness

exposed shadows at the core of iniquity.


This is the verdict.

Darkness hates the light,

illumination of all that is evil.

Darkness prefers the dank corners of corruption.

It ferments in its own mire,

lost in the grasp of sin.


This is the verdict.

Light came.

It touched those who sought it's brilliance.

Some chose darkness.

They distained the glow of purity,

and walked among dry bones

rather than flesh.
