Samaritan's Shoe

Yet,I can`t wear the Samaritan`s shoe though I can see blood stains and wound on you, You beckon to me for help,which is hard, For I don`t want to go without a card. It`s good to help your neighbor,this I knew, Yet,I can`t wear the Samaritan`s shoe , Blood trickling from your nose,made me ~ pity, Treatment of your wounds is not my duty. I feel guilty for not playing this dice For I would love to be in Paradise, Yet,I can`t wear the Samaritan`s shoe, Though my love is straight,passionate and true. I fear police views and implication, `You are an accomplice in this situation`, If it becomes a case,what would I do? Sorry,I can`t wear the Samaritan`s shoe. CONTEST:"Another day in Paradise" sponsored by JENISH SOOSAI ANTHONY.
