Premium Member Pray No Virus On My Hands

.
Awash . My clean hands. My paws
  I pray with folded hands. I pause 
      I hold. No gaps in my fingers 
          I give. Receive compulsive  
              An Order Humility wish
    
                     Still...I ...Pray
                              for
                             all
                            for
                           Me
                         Free
                       in love
                      in faith
                    no fears
                  to receive
                and to give
               Unenforced. 
             There I hold thee
          no fears ....nor guilt
       Paradox to wash clean
      in gallons of synthetics 
      Hold on.      A spoof this
 
All the hand sanitizers of WHO CDC
will not sweeten this little hand. Alas 
Now I suffer compulsive fear of giving
