The red eyes And snot stained Sleeves The shudders of Emotional agony The cement stones Standing in rows The tears of strangers Without homes The raggedy man With years of grey growth Holding a sign So you know That he needs help The elderly man Spotted skin Wrinkling While people Keep forgetting him The climate changed Species displaced And people running away To find a safe place Me, begging you to see The suffering of humanity While you just ignore me
