The face of the poor or homeless we do not notice or see.

Once lived on my street
He did not have much money
The clothes he wore were old and torn
A bearded man was his given name
Image via Wikipedia
He pushes around a store cart
It was filled above its sides
Everything he owned he carried around
As the bearded man walked quietly by
Image via Wikipedia
He did not interface with other folks
Yet his face show only hardship and stress
No one knew his real name
A bearded man alone and homeless
He seem to move slower everyday
While the content of his cart continue to grow
His story was hidden from the world
One bearded man with nothing to show
He did not search for money or fame
Survival was his main theme
Most folks seem to avoid him at times
The bearded man often did nothing but cry
It hard to believe his condition and blight
No one wants to see such a horrible life
The pride of this human is a distant memory
A bearded man now only has strife
Image via Wikipedia
With no family or friends he can call on
There was nowhere for the bearded man to go
So he sits alone with his worldly goods
A bearded man alone in the hood
