Impunity can be earned or granted.

Either way it is a gift to those with evil intent

by those content with evil.

Kindness seeks not currency or reward.

In the absence of both it is freely given,

often to those most in need by those unknowing need.

A hand outstretched seeks a hand withdrawn,

on meeting they create a bridge.

Bridges cross cavernous voids once impassable.

Impasse seeks to impune transgression

with kindness and with hope,

A bridge can be the pathway built with heart and threadbare rope.
