restored me to life from among those
gone down to the Pit." Psalm 30:3
they can toss us in
the dumpsters of ridicule,
but you climb in to find us
because we are your treasures.
they can craft policies which would
exclude folks simply because
of who they are, but you come running
to scoop your children up in your arms
and throw a big feast for them.
they can push us over the edge
of that pit dug by their hate and fears
trusting and hoping it is bottomless,
but you are waiting to catch us
and then show us the way out
because you were left there yourself,
and know the well-worn path to life.
