Oath
She hid the
spies
and gave them
counsel
these men whom she
knew
came to take her
land.
Some would say a
traitor.
She knew the
truth
they carried
mattered more
than land and
city.
Instead she
hungered for life.
Saved her family
and their kin.
She counted on
words
words of oath,
of covenant
words bound by
promises
given by
messengers.
Sent to bring
light.
