Make No Promises; Take No Vows Mean what you say Say what you mean Leave room for the failing for forgiving The comp for compassion goes a long way or so they say-- 'cross the heavens even burning dross all the way We are not what we were nor what we seem Leave room for the failing for what we will be Post-Paradisal bush-whack of living For what lies between Let your yes be yes and your no---no, and Know anything beyond that.... falls short... or for sure will be of the failing

Room for the Failing
Make No Promises; Take No Vows Mean what you say Say what you mean Leave room for the failing for forgiving The comp for compassion goes a long way or so they say-- 'cross the heavens even burning dross all the way We are not what we were nor what we seem Leave room for the failing for what we will be Post-Paradisal bush-whack of living For what lies between Let your yes be yes and your no---no, and Know anything beyond that.... falls short... or for sure will be of the failing
The original concept of sin was anything short of perfection. and we have all fallen short.
