Wrinkles color a homeless mans demeanor
Man eager to obstinintaley bark \" Why dont they get a job?\"
Pride robs them of doing this.
Afterall what would they put for an address, on the job application
Raging with embarrasement
To think a childs weekly allowance is more than he collects in 2 months.
Clutched in his hands a wrinkled dunkin donuts cup
his supposed bank account.
Looks around frowns on a result of only brown coins in his cup
Isolated without family and without a home
The bench in the park his sealy matress
As he lies down mind flashes to his previous life before he hit rock bottom
When he used to be respected
Now neglected as a wild animal
The man, parents tell their their children not to look at
Looks grow colder
Towards this older
Clothing donation wearer
Salvation army soldier
Damaging his shelter
Tears window off his cardboard house
Writes on to it \"HOMELESS PLEASE HELP\"
But he is ignored
His skin melts
As the sun pelts him with rays
While on the highway
Advertising for sympathy
