  A steel tag that reads "Depravity"

  I once saw a big oak adorned with a small silver disk that glinted in the sun.  I thought to myself two things: that the ornament was beautiful, and that it was not there naturally, originally.  I walked toward the tree to look at it in a closer light and saw to my horror that the ornament was no ornament but a cruel steel tag disguised.  On the tag was a number to label and attached was a string that encircled the captive tree.

              It struck me that the tree could as well be me or any human; deceived by what are really snares, distorted and seen as beauty by half-blinded eyes. A steel tag of sin we fool ourselves into thinking pleasingly adorns us, when really it marks us as sinners, fallen.
