Sarai
Laughing in the face of God
You have a bad rep
A nomadic life with a man who can’t explain
The powerful pull of promise
Once the agony of barrenness turned into
Sacrifice
A slave turned lover with new found contempt
Was everything inside you burning?
Weren’t you just trying to help?
A partner’s journey into doubt and futility
I understand
I would have laughed too
Doesn’t it hurt just as much
Entertaining an impossible dream
As it does to give one up?
