Dear Homeless fellow,

Unsure, uncertain is their smile
Amused, i stare for a lil while
Wonder what they make of me
somewhat like an old tree?

I guess i should have read the signs earlier.I was an enthu cutlet during my younger days. i despised lazy, easy goers.Always wondered, rather despised slackers

Appalling was the thought
sad memories it brought
of times when
i was more like them

And here i stand, with a bowl in hand, and a guitar with four strings. No kid grows up with dreams of becoming a homeless person. Well, almost no kids . Here and there, you might find a hard-working kid with such aspirations. Are these guys orphans and unattached, by rule. Would you ever know someone, who later in life becomes a home less? (Don't answer that)

I seriously don't have anything better to post.So, i dug up an old post.

The rhyming is forced. Never much of a poet or a pot head.

Let's say, somebody you grew up with, actually became homeless... Would you even come to know of it?? I am thinking, you'd lose touch with them.. I doubt people with college degrees become homeless...

even at the height of success..one could feel homeless(not just in the literal sense)...when hes dettached from the small pleasures of life which often makes home a heaven ....once deprived of love, isnt he homeless and orphaned too?
