Genuine ~ Wednesday, 28 August 2019

Giuseppe felt indigestion for years, 
in fact, for over three decades, he cried, 
understandably so, from the torment 
stirring in his bowels, all the time, his tears 
entertaining for some, sad for others, 
pretending they understood, his dad died, 
perhaps, when he was young, the years spent 
endlessly mourning a dead father, pained 

people with a conscience, to watch mothers 
enter Church on Sunday with their children, 
pregnant with another, but no husband, 
simply made people sad, their tears hidden 
in such a public place, cut an onion, 
no tears, but they saw his pain, unexplained.
