Society’s sinner

by Anya   Jun 27, 2019


“He always walked with sinners”
They lie
“He never walked with saints”
Ever turning to the sky
His righteousness not faint
He had but one sin to his name
And one it had remained
His sin of love for a sailor man
Though they saw it just the same
And with that sin they trialed him
With murders and thieves
With no relief from sturdy gin
But the restraint of iron keys
