I
wash my hands
frequently every day
fighting off viruses
lurking on surfaces
they
love him dearly
but his addiction broke
them, so they wash
their hands of him
the
congregation watches
the pastor washing his
hands in preparation
for the holy sacrament
those
seeking power
in the dark try to
wash off the blood
but the stains remain
frequently every day

I love this, Arcadia. So many different uses!
