Overshadowed By Light

Vomited by life,
             needy at night,
             the abandoned of the street,
             they have no names, only nicknames ...
             Among banned dogs,
             don't live, survive...
             Homeless, colorless, dropped ...
             When the full night dries,
             and the day fills the avenue, and
             sweep the alleys of brightness ... they fade
             so weak ... can't stand
             so much vivacity ...
             It's not people, it's haunts
             from the dark ... the so-called
             lost, the obscure,
             overshadowed by the light ...
             False light of men ...!
