The Veil: A Short Haiku

Nay, it is not the
Inadequacy of the finite,
To fully conceive

Of the Infinite,
That most calamitously
Hides His love from us:

Yea, our dark, arrant
Profane nature dulls our eyes;
Quelling Divine Light.

Each sin is a bid
To push off and forsake God;
Silencing His call.

Small sins seem harmless:
Yet an opaque veil is woven
Of very fine thread.
