Sensitive and Unafraid
Nestled next to God
Whom she claims to know
One day
She took in a crippled stranger
Who was blind and corrupt
Unable to live, unwilling to die
She did not smile at first
Unsure of the blind and corrupt man
Though he was as afraid of her
As she was awesome in her fearlessness
She taught God and happiness
He was an anarchist
Slowly she understood
That the stranger did not know what she knew
So they came to an accommodation
Each would grow.
