Lot's Wife

*

The Hebrew Bible recounts that Lot's wife looked back

after warned not to and was turned into a pillar of salt.

Any of us who dwell in not forgiving

the past become more and more bitter...

more full of salt.

The Hebrew Torah

The Christian Bible Lot and his wife flee Sodom and Gomorrorah - they fled iniquity and God's destruction of sinful people (recurrent theme) some pasts do not stay in the past. We will continue to wrestle with the past, it keeps reoccurring. This poem is intriguing. Forgive the past - if only. slc
