Shrinking violets
Bowing silent in the wind
Show strength not weakness
Silence, flexibility
Virtuous when others break

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Have we no shame
Unravelling nations and peoples;
Milling through their resources for our own gain,
Insisting we are justified.
Look at the dead in our wake!
Is this what humbleness looks like
Taking what’s theirs as ours
Yet claiming we are righteous?
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Proponent for the poor as the Good Book says,
Obeying the word divinely inspired in antiquity.
Practicing that which has for so long been preached,
Even amongst ever growing unpopularity.
Finally–perhaps a corner has been turned,
Revealing a man worthy of this sacrosanct reign.
Allowing himself to be humbled as others had not learned;
Nursing those whose lives epitomize great pain.
Could his motives be this solemn and pure
Iesvs Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm so commanded;
Saving of souls through teaching assured,
…this as our God has demanded.
