David's Mercy to Goliath

Folder: 
Jewish Teachers

We know not the fruit's hue

from that of the bloom.

Gold tomato blossoms

become red spheres.

The pointed yellow star

becomes the linga

of the cucumber.

The red blood of Nazi

camp suffering

has been transmuted in

most..

to an awesome forgiveness.



By this mercy

did David

convert

the heart of Goliath

You state David converted the heart of Goliath

You state David converted the heart of Goliath

On the veracity of that statement 

No one can vouch

The least we can say

Is David had a rough day

When he got home

He had to Goliath on the couch

I enjoyed it.
