Yesterday, a homeless man and his dog sat outside the entrance to Morrisons. A woman dropped change into the man's bowl and quickly walked way. She unknowingly dropped it in the dog's water bowl. The sight of the homeless man fishing it out still troubles me. So I wrote this.
FISH FOR CHANGE
When those submerged coins are fished right out the water bowl
Will the sense of shame in which they're dropped have cleansed our soul?
Can we now absolve our sins by first baptising change?
Can we now walk by and feel we're free of guilt and blame?
