Spitting

Spitting

A Poem by DakotaJ

Spitting
It drips
off my lips
the Freudian slip
like blood 
from my veins
pouring it reigns
my tongue
it is wrung
of its spit
never to quit
persistence
no resistance
to contemptuous existence
unrighteous jeers
fill up my ears
overflowing tears
to drown my fears
of what I know
and what I'll sow
causing me to blow
my spite and hate
and to contaminate 
my love with hate
how did I create
this unnerving state
in my heart
That's the first part. 
In the second part
I am reborn
and torn
away from my sin
my heart of tin
beating again
has now been
restored
back toward
our Lord, amen
Now I contemplate
my mistake
in letting hate
exterminate
my love and great
compassion or 
so it happens
a savior
our lord
sacrificed
his life
in time
that I'm
saved
then he raised
the third day
and became
all worthy of praise.
