Unshapen

Exit refinement from human standards

Be angry if you are. Be upset if you are.

Niceties has always been your defense mechanism.

But be true and tell no lies;

Especially to yourself.

Let God be the chisel to mold you and shape you.

Come as the raw unpainted marble.

What you’ll find is that the smiles you painted on rock

Are no different than the halos painted upon Christ in renditions of His crucifixion.

Depicting a reward during the burden,

And ultimately denying something very human. 

In the midst of the pilgrimage in this land.
