When You See Me, What Do You See?

I hope it is another human being

To those who feel abandoned
Constantly searching the night’s sky for a star they can call home
To those who know and understand poverty
Outcast by a society
For the dirt under their nails
The fetid smell that lingers after they have left
For being uneducated
For being a circumstance of poor health
