Haikus

 Truth lives, but comes hard

And slips away like first love

Held close in the heart


Integrity won’t 

Earn its keep, always hungry

It devours the sheep


Out the womb we come

Naked but for dignity

Don’t undress ever


Compassion isn’t soft

It’s love storming through the pain

That finds all of us


Freedom’s not a gift

It comes with consequences

And courage to act
