for precept must be on precept,
precept on precept; line on line,
line on line; here a little and there a little…. 
                        Isaiah 28:13

We are not in this world to escape,
to hide from the dread of man,
nor are we to fear the dread
of the unlawful or flee our 
homeland.

We need to breathe!

We are not in this world to cry,
“Not me,” of the unthinkable,
of the killers who paw raw meat,
or to beg for mercy.
