Dis-illusionment with evil: a divine incentive

Esther M. Scheck Peterson

A friend once asked me
somewhat quizzically,
"Are you illusioned?"
and I replied to this
rather unusual quiz,
"Aren't we all—
as mortals, that is?"

The Christly man,
never having strayed
from the Father's grace,
needs no disillusioning—
this man was never illusioned
in the first place!
