So seeks
Jews destruction
Mordecai’s law
Of God
Forbids offering
Obeisance to
Mere man…
mere man.

Becomes pawn
In chess
Game of
God’s Good
Vs. Evil
Mere woman
Satan’s archetype
Esther requests
Trinity fast
Her life
Their lives
Intertwined and
Judged dead
She fasts
Mordecai fasts
Susa’ Jews
Fast too
“After that I will go to the king, though it is against the law; and if I perish, I perish.”
