Calm colors familiar

Broken by humanity
When what is taken

On Widegulley Street
Who owned a black cat
With little white feet.

In black paint in a pan.
With her fully black cat
Tucked under...

Homelessness
Hand written cardboard signs
Held up by soiled hands
Asking for food, for change.
New to the game and still clean
Rookie looking like

An urban nomadic as he finds shelter in sin
Tarnished from his second hand clothes to his unjustly judged soul
Yet satisfactions rest within his panhandling bowl
Stained teeth glimmer when hearts...

It really wasn't that big.

To a sweet little puppy named 'Pig.'

No chances that you will drown."
