Thursday Morning TV news, finally daylight
I stretch my aching bones after a night in the homeless shelter
Ah, what’s this I hear? The Homeless in San Francisco
Getting served coffee while waiting for a bed
Who spreads these rumors
I began to question myself
Did not I spend the Night at the Shelter?
The one with the Barricades in the Lobby, Yes I most certainly did
First you have to be buzzed In!
Yeah people stopped jammering and banging on the door
Not because a solution has been found
But because no one was answering the door unless you had a ticket
You ring and ring the bell!
Where am I on this Computer
There are no beds, No such Luck
And I can’t get inside for comfort!
The Rumors they spread!
I guess I have to inhale my coffee
Along with the Cold, Night Air! |
