FALL OR DIVE

I understand that
Christians can
Fall from grace -

But why do sum
Of us
Dive headlong
Into the trough of
Sin?

We ought to know
Better
But Experience
Bitter
Taught us not
Taut enough
To resist.

Grades of
Cease and
Desist are not
Good
Enough.

What we
Knead to
Dough is
To allow
Ourselves to
Be molded
By the
Supreme
Bred
Maker.
