Conundrum

After Romans 7:7-25

A puzzle: a law

says there is a wrong,

and you must do right

(think speed limits).

But the mere fact

of the law lead us

to break it (what’s

five miles over

the limit, anyway?).

What is meant

to produce a good

leads to the creation

of a wrong. Perhaps

it’s not the law;

perhaps it’s the DNA.
