In yonder lands of arid climes, Where virtues shine in hospitality's rhymes, In Genesis' scrolls, 'neath Abraham's gaze, Lies tales of honor, and treachery's haze. 'Twas not the love twixt men that stirred the fray, But breach of kindness led astray, For Sodom and Gomorrah, in their plight, Fell to ruin in hospitality's blight. Lot, a figure, noble and bold, Did offer kin to guests, as the story is told, His daughters he proffered, in sacred vow, To uphold the laws of hospitality's brow. Reflect on this tale, and its moral decree, Homophobia? Nay, but kindness be free. A fable spun, though unreal it seems, To explain the Dead Sea's barren dreams. Thus, let us heed, in our earthly sod, The lessons of kindness, taught by God.
