Once upon a dinner, with some friendly sinners,
One of those who loved him, washed his feet with perfume.
—–
But another who knew, things like cost and value,
Offered a suggestion, proffered up rejection.
—–
Knowing what was coming, what was in the running,
putting things in context, Jesus forced a reset.
