Being Invisible

I sit and watch the world pass Wrapped up against the elements A door way for a home Against the world alone The heaving rush of busy people Going faster to their destinations No time to worry about the poor Averted eye's their noble cure Sleeping with one eye open Fearful of the thugs that come out at night Another day alone passes Can't afford rose tinted glasses The soup runners treat us well Without them, the world be hell In the morning rush, they walk over me An invisible man, can't make a plea
