Choose

He has placed before you fire and water; stretch out your hand for whichever you choose. Before each person are life and death, and whichever one chooses will be given. Sirach 15:17
Get burned or baptized. 
Grab one.

Sirach the warrior-  
tough-as-a-hickory-stick
-with-studs-
prophet
offers a choice, 
actually, a command: 
choose life. 

But, this life 
he wants you to choose
is no stroll in the garden.
It has God’s teeth sunk in it.
