To Grace And Hope

We've chewed and swallowed that which we must not eat.
Upon the fall, then, should the blame for all transgressions be laid?

Driving thorns deeper still
Into our sides.

Grace and Hope, bound,
Now march bravely,
Hand in hand,
To the gallows.

Like Mammon we propose a false Heaven.
May we blind our own eyes,
Cut out our own tongues.
Never to see or sing again.
