THE SIN by WINIFRED VIRGINIA JACKSON

Poem Explanation

First Line: NO, I WILL NOT CRAWL AWAY
Last Line: THAT BROKE THE SOD.
Subject(s): RELIGION; SIN; THEOLOGY;

No, I will not crawl away
In some dark corner where
It is planned that I must kneel
And say a prayer.

No, I will not crawl away --
But stand and face my God,
And we'll discuss the weed
That broke the sod.
