when inadequacy comes knocking who will shove it off the stoop? when the self importance of this world makes the air thick who will slice it thin with humility? who is that entity of selflessness sneaking behind the walls, crouching slowly? will rays of discouragement, worthlessness, and the like burn the skin beyond repair? I see sadness, but smiles abound. Happy but hungry, how can it be? Faith, love, and you- respectively.
