thirty-nine

“Then food was set before him to eat; but he said, “I will not eat until I have told my errand.” He said, ‘Speak on.’”  Genesis 24:33

God’s gofers,
let us
whisper hope to those
with souls longing for just
a nibble;
let us
offer a cup of justice
to those parched
by oppression;
let us
sing of wonder
to those who are dulled
by the despair of the world;
let us
shout ‘don’t be scared!’
to all bowled over
by the sellers of fear
