Upon Turning the Other Cheek

Having already hurt him
and big time ..
He offered up the other
cheek, but still
he let her wash his feet
and dry them,
with her hair and shawl
as some kind
of penance, or reward ..
She got real
turned on by that and so
he made
them both bleed more ..
No it doesn’t
hurt he said, and after all,
it is only pain
and not like my losing you ..
