Do the Uncommon Thing

One of the poems I wrote this weekend ...

Give the accused a chance to explain.
Give the condemned an opportunity to be forgiven.

Give the mocked a break to be trusted.
Give the hated a moment to be loved.

Give the failure a chance at success.
Give the misunderstood a chance to be seen.

Give the ugly a moment for glory.
Give the wounded many moments to be healed.

Come alongside the abandoned and forgot…
