Creation: worlds in chaos –
the push and pull
of opposing energies
within the cauldron of duality.
“Nature” at work – or play!
But insert the tiniest bit of judgment:
the nature of the world is changed –
in an instant,
perfection in evolution
becomes  “sin” being committed!

By definition of judgment-
though not by design,
the entire creation
is but one vast expression of  'sin'!

The question, then,
is not “How do we stop sinning?”
but “How do we stop judging?”
and should we find the answer
to this monumental riddle,
we are left with the easy part:
making right
all that judgment has ruined
since its inception.

Easy?  Did I say, “easy”?
Oh, excuse me, I meant,
“Easy by comparison
to ridding planet earth of judgment.”

WW, you certainly do have a fascinating and highly philosophical mind. I find all of your poems intriguing and thought-provoking.
Thanks for stretching my mind! It needs that once in awhile!

Interesting although I am confused by many parts but I did pick up on the notion that there is no sin, only judgements.  Which I believe is very true.  And judgements do wreak havoc upon our world unfortunately.  good read windwalker.

Wonderful write. As always.    Can one remove bloodstains...by washing the garment in blood?  Now, to stop judging the judgment.  ::smiles::

Well said WindWalker. Sin is such a nebulous issue and everyone is sure he/she knows what it is. I greatly enjoyed this work.
