Would you cry for me God did?
Would you die for me Christ did?
If I needed food would you feed me
Would you give me the shirt off your back if I needed
You are comforted/blessed
You are full/blessed
You are strong/blessed
I am weak/less
So tired can hardly speak, yet
Dirty, poor, hungry
Homeless????????

I am hungry, what will it be?
Ham, turkey or that nasty bologna?
I am hungry, chickpea mash?
Spam or that disgusting Hash?
I am hungry, mountain oysters anyone?
Fish eggs? Or sushi that is "not done?"
Such meager questions on what to eat.
There are people out there who are starving.
I feel ashamed and should do my part.
To give the shirt off my back would be a start....

Take me home take me
To my happy place
Where I can sing and dance
With the people I love 
Where you go hungry together, 
Laugh together and cry together
Where mistakes are part of
Life they are not judged nor
Praised. To the poeple who would
Give me the shirt off there back,
To the people I would die for.
To the place that holds my heart
To the one's I love so dearly....

I saw it
Kerouacin
Sitting on sophistication
If only your life could be so
I went pee 7 times tonight
You know you pick your butt 
when no one else is around
I wish you were here
Noises: you must check out
I don't want to be left behind
I didn't know i could scare 
myself like that.
This commotion i hear,
  What is it you want me to 
know?
Give me something warm like 
the shirt off your back!
It would really help in a time 
like this.
