“Flush it down”

By Dee Mahuvawalla, CS

When error seems
To knock at your door,
Don’t just frown,
Flush it down.

When it lifts its hydra head,
Don’t stand aghast
Hold to the Christ fast,
And flush the error down.

You are a target
Out of range,
“Stand porter at the door of thought”, [S&H 392:24]
Why don’t you just flush it down?

Remorse, regrets, or nastiness,
Are antipodes of christliness,
Don’t let it barb or tempt you,
Fearlessly flush it down.
