A Sweet Penance
A revelation?
sweet salvation?
running
praying
a message to remember?
blessings in disguise?
he said to believe
gave my sins leave
something to buy
reasons to try
he gave me forgiveness in each bite
he showed me the demons to fight
shuffling
paying
something to say sorry for
a snack to remember there's more

Sounds like healthy spiritual pursuit with solid guidance. Until the last two lines, which are kind of a puzzle. "Something to say sorry for." Would this be confession? "A snack to remember there's more." Food for pondering and inspiration? At least the penance is sweet rather than painful. Fascinating work, Miranda.
