🔥 Psalm 7: I Have Done No Such Thing

(retransmitted by Virgin Monk Boy after being misquoted, misjudged, and misread, then deciding to tell the truth anyway)

Psalms For The Unraveling

1
O Beloved, I take refuge in You
Not because I am innocent of everything
But because I am innocent of this

Let them not tear me apart
like beasts who think they smell guilt
when all they sense is grief

2
If I have done what they say
then let the consequences come
Let the truth break open
even if it breaks me

If I betrayed a friend
or wounded someone who stood in peace
then let me fall

3
But I have searched myself
and the silence agrees with me
I did not do what they accuse me of

4
Rise, O Presence
not with wrath
but with clarity

Stand in the still center
where justice does not need to shout
