Original Sin, owned

Artist credit: Simon Ushakov (1626-1686), “Last Supper”
“As I look around the room, 
I see that you all have bright,
golden halos around your heads.


You were born with them, 
and they are no less pure and 
brilliant now this day than on 
the first.

Only one person here is trying 
to earn his birthright; it is I.”

Composed by JP during silent worship at Ithaca Quaker Meeting
