A Class Forgotten

Look at them in the eyes
Speak like a friend
Listen to every word
And always be nice

Roaming cities every day
Seeking a place to sleep
Looking for something to eat
And take hopelessness away

Look at their feet
Imagine the pain they're in
Miles of road to blame
A little rest is sweet

Sleeping in the city
Tents erected, shelter perfected
Bench secured, cardboard expansion
Blankets given out of pity

Look at their effects
Trash to entertain
Findings to defend
Donations we call defects

These people need a hand
Be selective if you want
Yet do it form the heart
And you will understand

Haiku 2

Mobile

Little bright screen
Gets a lot more attention
Than the whole wide world

Beer

After a long day
When work has stressed my head
Cold ale is the cure

Picnic

Burgers and hotdogs
Lemonade soda and chips
The sun over me
