The fact of your goodness
is not in question. It is the frame of it,
the why, I seek to point out.
It is the size of it, the scope,
the way your light holds true and shining
against the backdrop of infinity
It never was defined
by what you’re not,
what you’ve abstained from,
or lucked out of,
it’s not from being on the winning side
Your goodness is pure
and so it can define
for you, and maybe others,
how uplifting and illuminating goodness is.
Through this goodness you can know your source —
it quenches thirst and nourishes, the same.
