בס״ד
Ki Seitze
Most of the issues mentioned here,
Seem strange to my existence,
I know I’m meant to learn from them,
But I still need some assistance.
I never had a hated wife,
Nor a wayward and rebellious son,
Or placed a fence upon my roof,
Where the grain dries in the sun.
To me the essential lesson is,
As the Torah here bears witness,
That we’re not by nature virtuous,
We must accept our limits.
We’re all prone to justify,
Our actions, right or wrong,
So we must nurture self-awareness,
Or we won’t last too long.
