COMPASSION IS HOLY BUT ONLY GOES SO FAR

I saw you rise

I watched you fall


I hid my eyes

and ignored the call


for help that no one

could bring to you


my heart bled for none

could for you what you had to do


we are our own jury

judge and executioner


but I will bring you

coffee and donuts


at the recovery station where you

will find compassion in your remaining guts...
