EXODUS FROM SHAME

What fear

he had

as a "boy"

Searching for

reasons why

it was so confusing.

A dollhouse was appealing

but god

is spiteful

and her knife

is sharp

When she saw

themself

The grip grew

tighter

A pull away

and a hand of grace

The tethers

forever

reaching

He broke away

Their remnants eluding

She adorned her skirt

With love from their people
