The sin
By benafim
The Sin. The sky was immense, limitless, off school on wooden clogs, I flew across a clover field till I was stopped by a mundane bird which appeared to have a broken wing. With a stone I killed it 'cause that's what one does with wounded birds…Right! Then I noticed its nest, four modest green speckled eggs, the product of a bird which wasn't going to win any beauty contest. In self disgust I trampled on the eggs, an omelette of hate, since they were not going to hatch anyway. Looked up, the sky was no longer limitless, but cryptic and I said: God, forgive me." I was met with deep ear shattering silence and knew from that moment that there is no God, and that I've to carry my cross of guilt alone.
