The Test
yet an other opportunity
thrown aside
disgust at my failure
at my ability to “follow orders”
I am no better than Hitler’s pawns
casting my responsibility aside
allowing it rest on the shoulders of others
boomeranging
it cannot be avoided
but comes back to haunt
once the decision’s been made
in fear of the outcome
I abdicated
and now its throne is occupied
by an other
woe is me
who longing faithfulness to death
fails under smaller tests
dear God
I am unworthy you
please move my soul to greater effort
with You as my only goal
