Inhuman Love
she never thought
she was waterproof
she never thought
she was better at being new
‒many things
she just saw through
it didn't make her fireproof
‒she never really waited
for the burden of proof
she didn't need to
‒much like ruth
she waited...followed her heart‒
it told her
what to say and do
her movements
weren't always smooth
she never gave into
the spoof
she did what
she was supposed to
she wasn't hurtful or cruel
she was honest‒
stuck to the truth
oh! there was a time or two
she play the goof
tried to fit in‒
all the way down to fool
‒playing that old school
not the good-vestibule school
oh, no, that's not cool
'old school' compares
to april fool
it's the hidden molecules
that lives in dark pools
as long as it's secret‒
you're part of the school
once it's known‒
they do away with you
you're the punt of jokes
the redeemer for all
in ridicule
you become 'karen'‒
the bottom of tomfool
oh! yes she tried that school
when she finished‒
she beat her skin
turning it red from blue
she paid her price
in cruel
over her...men drooled
behind her‒
women played peek-a-boo
all the while‒
she always cooked
her own stews
she by-passed the taboo
dawned sin…twice the part
to get through
first a baby‒
instead of a coo-coo
second...a life‒
with a tattoo
she almost met her waterloo
she walked through
a witch's brew
of lies on a bayou
but....
she didn't flinch
at the bug-a-boo
instead…with raised arms
she moved with
the impromptu
a love so far in‒
giving her strength
to continue
she wasn't the ruth
she was being 'ruthed'
‒at every move…moved
protected and soothed
when she didn't know
what to do
there came the coup
‒the hand of God†
the ultimate rescue
she knew there was no
whoop-de-do
with God†‒
there's no easy
walk-through
but of all life‒
His† way was above
all value
‒she didn't need
a rendezvous
or the humanistic
games in zoo
she just needed Him†
His† Love‒
was always true
through Him†‒
she became
weatherproof
(June 30, 2020)―I wrote ‘Inhuman Love’ yesterday. I was led to the story of Ruth two days ago. I don’t know what it is, but something struck me so profound that it’s had me sad since I read the story. It isn’t the first time that I read it. The first time was in 2007, but nothing inspired me then. Things have changed. So I thought about the story, then ‘Inhuman Love’ came. This made me even sadder, and I still don’t know why except that to see that my Lord has shown love to me the way Ruth has shown love to Naomi.
It also highlighted in my mind the betrayal of those who were supposed to love me no matter what. And this part really made me sad. Then this morning, after reading words of David, Jesus came:

I† cannot counsel you
if you do not want counsel
I† cannot tell you Truth
if you do not acknowledge Truth
I† cannot shed light
if you cannot welcome it
I† cannot redeem sin
if you do not lift it up
I† cannot release burdens
if you do not acknowledge them
I† cannot save
if you do not want to be saved
I† will not enter
unless you welcome Me†
