THE TWILIGHT / by Joe Castorino

Whoever says he is in the light,

Yet hates his brother or sister,

Is still in the darkness --

But beware The Twilight,

Neither fully in the light

Nor fully in the darkness,

The Land of the Lukewarm,

Like the Laodiceans of old,

Who are neither hot nor cold,

Who will be spit out like

Salt that has lost its flavor,

Like vines that have no fruit,

They will be thrown out

And they will wither,

Ever so slowly wither,

Into the black earth.
