consider

when laughter warms your heart
you engage
when tears well in your eyes
for pains sake
you feel
when poverty, hunger, abortion
break you
you awake
when concrete floors, and shop doors
become your home
you move
towards heaven
you stop
you think
my food
is reconsidered
when pollution strikes
with force
for it cannot see
that child
behind
my car it
breaks
families
my toilet paper
it endangers my
species
my hands my arms you will find me
deep in shame
but i am trying to get dirty
i am trying to put my own
in my own
to give my own
to You.
For I and they, them and me
we are made
to be in
