Homeless man sitting in the corner
Of a car park that leads to the shops,
Homeless man sitting in the corner
Of a car park hoping someone will stop,
Offer him a coffee or a tea a sandwich or something to nourish him.
As I see him sitting there in a state of cold despair,
I wonder why and what happened to his life and why no one cares,
Apart from three random person who stops
And shows him kindness and compassion,
Through the offering of drink and food.
But is this enough because on every corner there are more
And maybe we should address the problem at the core,
That with so many people who have way too much,
How are there people that just don’t have enough.
Does this define the failing of the state
And an obvious decline of how people a treated in society today.
So many questions,
To few answers
And so the problem just goes on and on,
Until we become sanitised
And learn not to see,
They become blind to our eyes
So we no longer see,
The homeless man sitting in the corner
Of a car park that leads to the shops
Homeless man sitting in the corner
Of a car park hoping someone will stop.
