There are only two kinds of men: the righteous who
think they are sinners and the sinners who think they are righteous.”
― Blaise Pascal, Pensées

Ah
Lord
I was so angry at “them”
those people who think they are righteous
and trample the poor
and wounded
I raised my voice to the sky
in lament and condemnation
and I thought to myself
how righteous am I
with my compassion
and acceptance
and then I knew
I was a Pharisee on the corner
Condemning
the Pharisee
on the other corner
