Everyday Threads

 I am so lost in my head I almost wish I were dead I can't figure it out I want to yell and shout Like swords in my mind The words are not kind They slice and dice My brain into rice I try to cry it away It goes for a day Then is back twice as strong I try but it goes wrong Every damn time I don't mean to whine I need some sunshine Or better yet a new life Free from sorrow and strife

 Good Neighbour A good neighbour lends a hand where ever they can To each blown around grain of humanity A simple smile or a sudden hug for no reason So easy, a free expression of compassion A cup of water or a 1 litre bottle Can make a huge difference. This is my lament Why are people such assholes To give a homeless person A place to rest for an hour or two Maybe the difference for them Between dying quick or slow A small helping hand On a hot, hot day So simple, so easy Essentially forgotten A blanket or a plastic bag the difference between a good night and a bad one I could go on but the sadness is hitting me really hard. The landlords called the cops to remove some of the resters and I got into a disagreement with a police officer. Now I think he thinks I'm a dealer but thats ok he can spend the day out there if he wants, I will do what I want to do.
