Nondescript

This is pain

with no grand stands
or finish line anywhere
in sight.

No cheering. 

No applause. 

No media frenzy.

No explanation. 

No fame.
No proof.
No evidence. 

No reward. 

No payoff. 

No reason.
No pictures.
No interviews.
No visibility. 

No remedy. 

But Dr. Brand, if you say it 

is a gift and Phillip Yancey 

agrees, who am I to argue?
