This poem is not pretty...
It's real black and white
no one wants to listen to them
few want them
families in shambles
mom was gone long ago
the ***** drug addicted, unlucky
children, adults, black , white, chinese
you name it they are there
no work
no hope
hungry and *****
few notice them
blending into the sidewalks
400 a night fill just one shelter
one shelter of thousands
crazy and sane
the forgotten and the down trodden
it could be you
you just don't want to admit it
