Red Light Sucker

Are you truly homeless and hungry? The cardboard sign with crooked letters says you are... I only have a red lights time to decide. Some say panhandlers make a good "living" ...are you one of them Your clothes are dirty and raggedy but you eyes are filled with fire and piss am I just feeding your lazy veins or a man hanging on the edge of the abyss. I've only a red lights beat to decide I splash a few coins in your palm and notice your nails are cleaner than mine I think I've just become your red-light sucker, oh, well-goodbye and good luck- blood sucker?
