{See JUD 1:16-20}
What sly enemy
Whispered
to you this choice
which you have chosen?
Where did you find that idol
To polish, and place upon the pedestal of your heart?
Your treasure lies unprotected
Scattered
Across the countryside.
The gold of your children’s inheritance
lies among growing weeds.
Did no friend warn you?
