and was saved from every trouble." Psalm 34:6
we share memes
telling others we feel
their pain, but really don't
want them to show us
their wounds.
we quote folks who speak
of inviting others to be
open about their struggles
and when they do, we quickly
move past their post.
we like to share platitudes
which imply that we will
accept others for who they are,
but when they pull back
the curtain, we reply, 'surely,
that isn't you . . .'
no wonder they cry
out
to you, Listening Ear.
