      One Touch Remedied

A few human 
words. Only a few. 
Words said in anger or love,
controlling or consoling, 
but always speaking volumes.
They are never forgotten. 
Imprinted so deeply
they are remembered, replayed 
for all the days in a lifetime. 
A touch of the human hand, a mere touch, 
to linger in the mind and the heart long after. 
Giving tears or laughter. 
Instilling love or anger 
personified by the human hand. 
A few human words. Only a few, 
Weak and angry, abusing! misusing, 
saying 'You are wrong!'
Because I am the strong one. 
My louder voice rules. My forceful cuts rule.
These are the tools 
of my persuasion. 
A touch of the human hand, a mere touch. 
Weak and angry, stinging! 
savagely saying 'You are wrong!' 
because I am the strong one. 
My swift hand rules. My heavy fist rules. 
These are my tools 
of my persuasion.
A touch of the human hand. A mere touch. 
A few human words. Only a few.
Remedied by the hand of God.
