Sensitivity

Anyone insensitive 
to others problems,
inevitably displays
an insensitivity 
to very own needs.

Such one instinctively
is hypocritical in deeds.
And actually thrives
in pernicious ways 
of life and living.

Mould the desire
and the sensitivity in me.
To assist and comfort
the less privileged,
the hurting and oppressed.
My God and Saviour.
