Harmless Sins

I have done what society has condemned.
I have stepped over the line of the accepted.
I have spit in the face of the pastor.
I have tasted the forbidden fruit.
And I have bragged about it.

I have seen the dirty streets of society's ignorance.
I have skipped to the wrong side of the tracks.
I have laughed in the face of the king.
I have strayed from the flock.
And I have enjoyed every minute.

I have disregarded the universal law of society.
I have danced my way through the moral wilderness.
I have cursed in the face of my family.
I have broken every commandment.
And I have smiled all the way.

But yet,
I have not been banished by society to an outside world.
I have not been shoved into prison and locked away.
I have not been slapped by their commander.
I have not been thrown into the lion den.
And I still walk among them.

But this is not my funeral.
