Confession

My confession was simple:

father, I said, I’ve sinned

guilt of the universe sits

heavy on my chest

forgive me that

I passionately loved

the bloomed hyacinth and

the flight swings of swallows

yet my greatest sins

my unmeasured love 

for the child’s laughter

and for the beggars standing

with extended hands

filled with good wishes.

My confession was simple:

father, I said, I’ve sinned

Straight to the Purgatory

the priest opined
