Righteous

Then there's God. There's always God.

Righteous:

It is a word I have only

Previously applied

To Pharisees.

Righteous

Has been applied

To me

Twice in this last week,

A compliment

Both times

In very different

Contexts.

It even felt

Like a compliment,

Both times.

Language is an odd thing.

Words can carry

A wealth of meaning.

It depends

On the person speaking,

On the person listening,

On the understanding

Of both.

Then there’s God.

There’s always

God.

Righteous appears to be

In the eye and heart

Of the beholder

And the beholden.

And God.

There’s always

God.
