Not the dogs

After Philippians 3:1-3

We are not the dogs,

not the evildoer; we

are separated from that

and more, the dogs

gobbling and scavenging,

consuming any and all

they find, breathing in

and inhaling what they eat,

evildoers mutating

themselves in faint

imitation of the remnant,

sounding an appeal

but delivering death.
