What does
a Person matter?
Distant and not
in our field
of view,
we forget.
Or is it that we
don’t want
to remember?
Held in the
confines of
no where
to go,
this Person
is visible
but invisible,
on the borderline
between left
and not yet arrived.
What does a
Person matter?
Only as we look
into their eyes
and take in
their face
and feel the
suffering there.
In memory of Emmanuel Levinas
