    I PRESS

     

    Through the crowd, I press.
    
    Closer, but still not close enough.
    
    No, don't push me this far back!
    
    I need to be at the front.

     

    Something awaits. I'm not sure what.
    
    Through the crowd, I press.
    
    Onward, I crawl on hands and knees
    
    Through feet and dirt and mess,
    
    
    
    Until my fingers brush the hem
    
    Of the Master's precious robe,
    
    And the words come forth:
    
    "Thy faith has made you whole."
