God helps those

God helps those


The old adage, the lie,

the truth of the powerful -

God helps those

who help themselves.


So arrogant, this lie,

the privileged, the righteous

casting their neighbors

into the mud, the dust.


The real truth different

from the well of God’s loving;

God helps those

with no chance to help themselves.


God loves the sinner,

the downtrodden, the broken;

thankful, God helps

the unrighteous, all of us.
