Fortified towers of prayers nights and days;

Walls shudder...

Searching for the weakest link,
The source of consternation;

Seeking out the places where you need to make improvement.

Towards indifference as given
Although women abhor gratitude
For societal foibles forgiven

In the face of the Christian faith
That burns within a woman’s soul
