St Callistus . Tuesday of Week 28 in Ordinary Time

Pharisees clean the outside of the dish.
But inside are full of wickedness.
For what truly do we wish.
Do we want more or are satisfied with less.

St Callistus forgave us when we fail.
We do so all the time .
We all have our failure tale.
We cannot make our lives rhyme.

Hippolytus said no.
You cannot be readmitted.
You must be brought low.
Sin and you are expelled.

Callistus said what is bound.
Can be loosed and taken in the round.

……

So all that is bound
Was given to Peter loosed
We are forgiven

See Luke 12 : 37-41
