Homeless

She desperately walks from street to street. Hoping to find something to eat. Her stomach growls with hunger pains, her only clothes covered in stains. She used to have a job and got fired, now her body is aching and tired. Society looks down upon her in disgust, She has nobody that she can possibly trust. Her family turned their backs on her a long time ago. She's worked hard and has nothing to show. She chose the wrong life, a life full of drugs and bad decisions now that next high is all that she envisions.

I came across a prestigious list of the top 100 most published poets here and I am not surprise. Your quality indeed goes hand in hand with your quantity. I'll check one or two more of your works because this has given me a unique satisfaction. I give you a handshake of a definite 7!
