Who think your words
Are for the top 2%
I have more
Than one coat
When someone borrows
From me
I want it back
I am well fed
I have money
For groceries
(without SNAP)
And I eat in
Restaurants
I have more shows
On TV
Than I can ever possibly
Watch
I go to movies
I go to shows
I go to parties
… I have much
To make me laugh
I enjoy affirmation
I want people to like me
I do not want to be hated
In this life
But you don’t want to take away
Our food
Our clothing
Our laughter
Our positive experiences
That’s not what you mean
You want us to want as much
For others
As we want for ourselves
Luke 6:24-26
