[Poem] Some Thoughts on Forgiveness

NaPoWriMo- 17 GloPoWriMo-17
If you haven’t sinned at allBut you're told “I forgive you”Would it offend?I suppose it would.Not only that -It would incite indignation And open the doors to be forgiven in turn.
What of the juvenile Who was absolved of a brutal rape/murder? Who walks free today?Condoned on account of his ageDoes the condonation suggestThat he hasn’t done any wrong at all?Will the mother ever forgive or forget?
Forgiveness is a mythAs long memory existsDespite all the coaxing to move onIt lies somewhereAn inert dog in the sun Who suddenly wakes and bark. <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:"Cambria Math"; panose-1:2 4 5 3 5 4 6 3 2 4; mso-font-charset:0; mso-generic-font-family:roman; mso-font-pitch:variable; mso-font-signature:3 0 0 0 1 0;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-unhide:no; mso-style-qformat:yes; mso-style-parent:""; margin:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} .MsoChpDefault {mso-style-type:export-only; mso-default-props:yes; font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;}size:612.0pt 792.0pt; margin:72.0pt 72.0pt 72.0pt 72.0pt; mso-header-margin:36.0pt; mso-footer-margin:36.0pt; mso-paper-source:0;} div.WordSection1 {page:WordSection1;}</style></div>
