Corner Man
Man on the corner
all wrinkled up
brown as dirt
got a cardboard sign that says
Please Help
he goes down the line
crazy lookin'
people roll up their windows
hear click
lock their doors
watch him now
in the rear view
till he gets to the end
and comes back around
hope the light changes
before havin' to deal
with him
he ain't homeless
he's shiftless
says the man
give him a dollar
says the woman
man guns it
ain't nobody rippin' me off
we gotta get to Walmart
they got a sale on
ridin' lawnmowers.

Great little poem that speaks to the heart. So busy with me that i can't see you.
