perceptions leading to plenty
in my purse is to be worldly wise
and practical like the tractable
triumph i first sought much
while sacrificing my sympathy
to small, a single sheep that compels
a sacrifice of success, a prosperity
for ninety-nine in the fold of safety
but that Nazarene seeking me
taught the folly of not tracking
the lost in whom is my true soul
also lost, waiting to be found
