Inner Camera

Inner camera
 P K Routray

Hide well a man can from others’ eyes

his sinful words and deeds with subtle lies.

To hood wink others he may pretend and feign

proving his innocence so that his clean image reigns.

Men around him and away from him may fail to observe

his wrong sinful deeds which his inner camera preserves.

Thus the wrong deeds which he keeps artfully hidden

continues forever to sting his conscience from within.

By grace of God Man has discriminatory power to discriminate

but under sensual influence  sinful deeds he does not eliminate.

The camera within the man takes continuous snaps of his own deeds.

What a fantastic surveillance for remedy, the God has provided to man indeed!
