O, the Possibilities
Only just believe
No error is beyond us
No evil outside our bounds
Every lawless act
You could ever invent
We can realize
Any fallen deed
You could never fathom
We can do without a care
For we possess the potential
To wrong, and to violate
We are inclined to malign, and to curse
Our folly-laden hearts
Are apt to fail us
Our rancid tongues and thoughts
Do us injustice
O, the possibilities
What base and brutal
Practices await our engagement
What careless strings of words
Have yet to wriggle
Its way via cerumen
All the possibilities are endless
Temptation is abundant
Forbidden fruits are ever present
Some hang limply from
Old, secluded trees
Others hang in clusters
Throughout young, public gardens
Our souls sail atop a
Boundless, deep blue
Body of pure misdoing
More often though they drown in
The delusive calm of opportunity
