Sin

Tiny infractions ripple out
stir calm waters to friction
A choice made in January
floods the coast of July

It's not rocket science
The effect of brushing eyelashes
on the wrong cheek
can destroy more than your week

 
Friends and lovers are fickle
they may not be there for you
when you need them most
they're human

impacting people with
every sudden move
or skip of turn
forever trespasses to forgive
