Glance Keep Glancing
Glance at the child that appears restless
starving for attention
while his mother has no sense of his direction
glance at his father that's never there
glance at the neighbor that slams his door
towards abomination
glance at the homeless that stoops to eat
while sliding his cardboard box away from the heat
glance at the selfish
hiding their riches
glance at the addict that rob, steal and kill for something that will disappear
glance keep glancing cause it's all real...............
