Crowded Solitude

Once more, a tired tarp shields 
       and saves him tonight
from the dreary drizzle that 
       deadens his sight;

these days solitude has been 
       the trash can fire
he's been huddling around 
       in fevered desire

with fellow wanderers warming 
       weary hands,
on their fingers college rings, 
       wedding bands.
