It’s a time-old marvel–
how gossip becomes legend.
How faults are masked,
and virtues expanded.
How facts are abandoned,

The one who feels pain.
You work in shadow,
Seeing distant dangers
and tracking them down.
You’re the one taken
in hostage situations
who puts others first.
Some might see you as:
weaker, smaller, less appealing,
more human, more us…
Or who we want to be.
