Questions I Ask

We all know a good father gives
To His children according to their needs.
However, will the Good Father
Give, to a man who asked for a stone
Bread, and the man who asked for a serpent
Fish, and the man who asked for a scorpion
Eggs? I truly do not know.

For if I ask for a wife, and she is an idol
Like a stone, will He instead give me a living one?
If I ask for Satan as my best friend, will He
Instead give me Solomon to instruct me?
And if I ask for the scorpion's sting of death
And for my life to end, because I suffer
Will He instead give me new life and new breath?

I do not know.
