A holy spirit of healing un-comeliness
Was alive and well today,At, of all places, Walmart.
Hustle and Bustle were drawing down mouths.
Guilt rode the eyes, yoked together, and whipped them.
Worry lined each brow preposterously,
Until the one armed man walked thru.
The physical effect was immediate
On anyone who cared enough to notice him,
As he pulled his buggy along.
Reality shook sense into us, one by one,
As we realized our own brands of fortune and luck.
I blinked hard twice, myself,
That while he was calling on others,
He did not pass me by.
