There Is Always A Time For Reckoning Poem by RIC BASTASA

There Is Always A Time For Reckoning



those with black conscience
shall take all the time to laugh
they will have their own time
the deepest ocean knows how
to listen

there is always a time for
reckoning
that is our hope
we do not inflict the pain
it is the pain that inflicts itself
upon themselves

that is the law
it is harsh
and it shall prevail

we who have white souls
shall wait
we do nothing to stain our hands
with blood
to dirty what clean skins we have
we shall wait
for always the day of reckoning comes
it is harsh
it is the law
and surely it will prevail

they shall grind their teeth
burn themselves
eternally in hell
