Ways and means

2 Peter 2:2 2 And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom The Way of Truth will be blasphemed. WaysThere are only two ways to go ... or is it more I count?

Forward, sideways, up and down ... or backwards at slow pace

And if I turn and start to run ... will I then go backwards

A practice that is often done ... in the fallen human race?

 

Some move far to the right ... but only in opinions

For they live on the left ... at the expense of another class.

Let us go up they call out ... going down the stairs

And what goes down can’t go up ... it’s just another mess.

 

Movement always ongoing … without rest even when asleep

Going towards where we’ve been ... thinking we’re progressing.

Maybe in the realm of things ... we will move at faster speed

When our body is dead and gone ... where we’re then vested.
