Sunday school
promised me His way
was love and mercy
not anger and revenge
still, I feared your God
I stepped anxiously
in a larger world
afraid to distract
his busy hand
from worldly matters
to my failings
then one worldwide
disobedient day
he tutored me himself
my grandmother died
in my arms that day
she peeled a potato
then folded to the floor
her bluish lips
spoke nothing
of a next world
He taught me
love and mercy
for her lost life
anger and revenge
for his master plan
