he sees all humankind." Psalm 33:13
peering through our
rose-colored glasses
of all's right with the world,
we never notice
the children at the park
playing playing by themselves,
the older lady eating
alone in the bistro,
the immigrant family
struggling to buy food
in a language they
cannot speak yet,
the pierced young person
with the multi-hued hair
wondering why everyone else
who had been sitting
in the waiting area
have been called back
for a job interview, when
they were the first person
to arrive that morning.
