Clandestine sin
doesn't exist!
God knows
when I'm
below His standards
Now, with irony,
I sit amongst sinners
in a holy church
where I pray
that The Word
will excavate my sins.
I loathe large crowds,
so I pray that I,
the newcomer,
will fit in well
with these church veterans.
Are they watching me
with sympathy or with judgment?

Well, in some churches, it does not mean they are all believers.
It's like - just because I'm in the garage, it does not mean to say I'm a car!
Hopefully they will accept you. If not, they're not worth knowing.
Thank you for the comment. I've been to churches with negative atmospheres and it was discouraging. I'm at a better church now.
