Beware the Devil's Hug

What if a homeless, smelly, ugly, unkempt old man had a hug so powerful it could cure cancer? Cause a prostitute to stop hooking and seek true love?
Shake the demons of addiction free from a junkie?
Make a Christian want to embrace and love a Muslim and vice versa?
But rare is the beneficiary of his divine embrace -
nobody wants to come near him out of fear.
