PARADE OF VIRTUES, 5:45am THURSDAY
You wrong us
We let You know how
- is that not love?
You ask how to do better
We believe you can
- is that not faith?
You stumble or fail
You get another chance
- is that not patience?
You obstruct
We continue
- is that not persistence?
You press down
We rise up
- is that not determination?
Though You fail
We believe you'll succeed
some day
- is that not hope?
You renew the cycle,
still We walk among you
- is that not tolerance?
We've offered You answers
when You have sought them
- is that not charity?
You ignore or dismiss this
and think You're doing fine
- is that not ignorance?
