orphans of a God misplaced,
wailing hungrily.
simply yearning
for
but a touch
of love
unfulfilled.
hardened eyes
spew
vile vitriol
honest hearts
vomit rotten truths
unto brothers
and sisters all.
blinded,
seething
fearful and small,
remaining generous
in the pain they share.
momma come home
we don’t
any more.
