Kinsmen Of Consideration & Courtesy Poem by John Sensele

Kinsmen Of Consideration & Courtesy



Kinsmen of consideration and courtesy are affections
Affection for your neighbor
Affection for others' emotions, devotions and predilections
Affection for educated endeavor and lofty labour.

Kinsmen of consideration and courtesy are concerns
Concerns for the welfare of the vulnerable
Concerns for invited interns
Concerns for Jesus Christ, the adorable and most venerable.

Kinsmen of consideration and courtesy are street kids
Street kids who sleep rough
Street kids who survive on soya and sorghum seeds
Street kids who by default can't afford to laugh.

Kinsmen of consideration and courtesy are street peddlers
Street peddlers who at the crack of dawn scrounge for scraps
Street peddlers harassed by mindless meddlers
Street peddlers can't afford selfie snaps and mundane maps
