Squinting to avoid the pain

Meets pardoning grace
Again and again
Can you be humble?
Will you take
The exchange?

Until a young man arrived, claiming to be from an overarching world government. He gave them hope that unity would be re-established at the highest level. And cautioned them about two men out of the east with “abilities.”
