I need it now

by aldo Kraas   Jan 5, 2026


I need it now
God I am a homeless
I am begging in the streets
For something to eat
I need something to eat now
I haven't eaten for days
God I need some water
I am dehydrated
God I need a
Cooler spot to sleep
I need that cooler now
Please give me
Some shelter
That have air conditioning
God I didn't had
A shower for a week
And I am starting to smell bad
God I need a shower now
I want it now

    Hi Aldo, I think your piece is honest and sweetly conveyed. I also do not claim this is a powerful poem, but I disagree with anything Dill said.

    Keep on writing.

    Not great. No rhythm no rhythm, no poetic devices whatsoever. This is just lines of prose stacked on top of each other, and it's not even good prose.
