Vagabond Stories Never Heard

Vagabond roaming about
Feebly holding your hand out
Your shoulders buckled black and blue
Society turns her back on you

Wanderer drifting aimlessly
You don’t fool me so easily
You have hushed stories to tell
Twixt between heaven and hell

Transient invisible or not
Hardly more than an afterthought
When I get to the pearly gate
Fair karma my cold heart await
