SOMEONE  MATTERS 

A scuffy, scuzzy, someone - 
shuffled up to Jesus’ side.
He looked this someone in the eye.
He did it with love and attention like
he did to every someone he met.

A sleek, slick someone -
went, “Tch, tch, tch, tch, tch, tch!
Look at these sinners, these
nobodies,  who are slithering up to
Jesus - these illegals on our planet.”

And Jesus laughed, and laughed,
and then laughed some more.
What else could you do, when
you love every someone there is,
every someone on our planet?
