Walking Away From Kindness

Walking Away From Kindness
*   
A man on a park bench sees
Another man sitting on a park bench.
He sees the man with folded arms
Across his heaving chest.
His body is rocking, ever so little,
Back and forth.
The man watching gets up 
And walks toward the man crying.
The man crying stands up and
Walks away.
