Street Sheet's Left Coast Pearls of Wisdom: Time For Everyone


A third excerpt (first is here and second is here) from the $1 Street Sheet 2008 Art & Poetry Issue from a January '08 visit to San Fran. All grammar ibid.

Think about it.

Time for Everyone (by George Wynn)

"If a St. Francis of Assisi
Bodhisattva resided in every neighborhood
From seacliff to Bayview
He'd touch you, he'd touch me
Yeah. he'd touch the rich
He'd homeless people and the feeble
He'd hug the folks with AIDS
He'd hug the poorly paid
And smile all the while:
'look my brothers and sisters
I've got nothing, but I've got everything.'"
