HPM2 - Homeless People Matter Too
We are the homeless,
that’s what you call us,
our name is just Homeless,
not John or Jane, or even people.
We are the homeless,
that faceless blob in tent cities,
under bridges, on park benches,
in doorways, and the woods.
We are the homeless,
the ones without TV
to hear the lies about
for everyone and unity.
We don’t vote and
we don’t donate.
We don’t burn and riot.
So our voices are never heard.
We are the homeless,
that’s what you call us,
our name is just Homeless,
not John or Jane, or even people.
We are the homeless,
People, not just homeless
