Jesus' Friends

Disreputable, tax collectors, lepers, prostitutes,
beggars, convicts, thieves,
orphans & widows, discontented, poor.
These were his friends.

Cast-off, fishermen, vagabond,
unemployed, terrorist (ζηλωτής), lost,
traitor, confused, impecunious.
These where his companions.

Respectable, governors, politicians, church leaders,
magnates, bourgeois, merchants,
movers & shakers, contented, rich.
These were his enemies.

Who are you?
