We are
the children of green pastures,
our hearts’ deep waters roiling
with questions we
are not allowed to have,
with difficulties we
were raised to escape.
We are ripe
with frustrated longing,
trying to untangle from
“benevolent”–or, at least–
“well-intentioned” crooks
that catch us still
when our broken legs heal
enough to stumble away.
We are
“blaming” and “bitter”
and “irresponsible”
and angry–so angry
because sometimes
it wasn’t the Lord
who was our shepherd–
at all.
