by his wounds we are healed
Absorbing the fear and hate
of thousands of years,
I clothed myself in flesh
and vulnerability
And came back to my plundered home.
I walked among those whose pain I had
shouldered from the beginning of time,
The cast off and thrown away.
I took the leper into my arms.
In my eyes the used
and exploited found their humanity
reflected back to them.
