Abomination

I wonder what it means to be called an abomination

and if this has any relationship to being a damnation,

as there must be certain things that people do in deserving condemnation

which go against all reasonable human laws and are opposed to salvation.

 

If what has been handed down from the past is any indication

then we are somehow all obliged to follow with a dedication,

for our own sakes and that of all our so called many relations

who are subject to the same weaknesses, trials and temptations.

 

To some it may seem there need not be any restriction

which will generally only incur a justifiable conviction

for any laws broken and usually dealt with a harsh sanction

that blame or guilt can be done away with by a transaction.

 

There are so many things people do without any justification

except to satisfy their own sense of individual expectation

especially where the actions done are without any provocation

against a fellow human being who’s an object of victimization.
