Homeless Man

He waits by the fire
But he cannot get warm
He sleeps outdoors
With the mangy dogs
And loose women of the night
Who've fallen off the radar.
The shelter won't let him in
He too crazy
And his family don't care
He wants a bus pass to the skies
Though he compromises and dies

'He awaits by the fire but cannot get warm' - a wonderful irony which underlines the very predicament of the homeless man. Thank you, Rodney for the lovely piece. Welcome to Poetrysoup!
