Which means that we’re a far cry from fair dealing,and we’re not even close to right living.We long for light but sink into darkness,long for brightness but stumble through the night.Like the blind, we inch along a wall,groping eyeless in the dark.We shuffle our way in broad daylight,like the dead, but somehow walking.We’re no better off than bears, groaning,and no worse off than doves, moaning.We look for justice—not a sign of it;for salvation—not so much as a hint.
