Human Hands


Perhaps I'm not a true Christian. I was tried.
A woman on the street came up to me asking for money.
Out of gas. Told me her name. Nice body. Arresting.
I thought about having sex with her and refused the request.

For cash, that is. Upon afterthought, I felt bad. Really.
I had a few bucks to spare. Got in my truck and reconsidered.
Looked for her but she'd disappeared. Wow. Quite the cycle.
Her face wasn't too attractive, however, and I moved on.

"Give to whomever asks of it." rolled around in my mind.
But my heart has hardened. Couldn't be bothered.
I could have helped her; instead, I just saw the physical.
Aspect? Goes around comes around? Ruminate on that.
