A Missionary-Kid's Reflection

he grew up around it
the type of stuff you see
on commercials for the
Christian Children’s Fund

orphans
disease
poverty

when he goes back
he worries because
he is unmoved
while others
less acquainted
with it
weep

what’s wrong with him?
nothing that actually asking the question
won’t start to counteract
