Who is the Woman

apoloutrosis
a releasing effected by payment
of a ransom, setting free, liberation
deliverance, free, release




the
street
preacher looked
at the people
and said raise your hands
and offer praise for this free gift, shake
off your worries, you’re delivered
from sin today
Give praise
Sing
Shout


a
woman
shouted out
I wish it
came with a month’s rent,
a pack of cigarettes and a lottery ticket

Loved this one - especially "a month's rent" (a necessity) "a pack of cigarettes" (a luxury) and "a lottery ticket" (hope for the future").
