And the lord said,
"Behold, I give thee innocence,
that you may trust,
even those that conspire,
to harm you".

And the lord said,
"Behold I give thee courage,
that you may bear,
the pain and suffering,
of childhood rape".

And the lord said,
"Behold i send thee as sheep,
among the wolves,
stripped and bare,
naked and ashamed,
powerless and naive.

because I love you".

an honest prayer, if ever there was one.

suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come to me

so therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
