Blessed are They That Mourn - Even if They are White
The white woman’s tears
offended the forgiven debtor
a woman of faith
angered by
a spirit of
empathy
towards this
white remorse
either too
cowardly
or too thirsty
for revenge
she decided
to attack all
they like her that mourn
but attacking mourners
asking for
forgiveness
makes one as much
an oppressor
as also
unforgiven

I should probably have added a link, but there’s some talk of not forgiving going around. That will never work for anyone.
