Oriental
Or occidental --
It couldn't be this coincidental
Or even accidental
That we feel one and the same.
It's a shame
That the name of the game
Has never changed.
Idols we erect
Our worth we make our gods
In futility
We strive for a hint of divinity.
Not understanding it lies in humanity.
A circle never meant to be broken
Is God's creation to be returned
To Him spotless
Guileless
Into the land of rest and forever living.
"...I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." Jeremiah 31:33-34 KJV
