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.
