street drinkers ? do you look down at them ?

[poemgate]

think ? highgate road bench ? 05.03.17




i don't no how to address

my attentions are to be kind

2 ladys no more no less

opposite the fire station you will find.

rain or shine

cold even boiling

sitting on the bench has no decline

the whether has no spoiling.

always very friendly

a gentle greeting

asking for spare change tenderly

this addiction is fueled by no cheating.

to the off license suppler

more tins to dampen the psychosis

the livers must be dyer

in the post is cirrhosis.

do a whole shift

i grind to make my bread

going home just empty tins to lift

a repeat tomoz is no dread.

i see what others blank

to the village i am going to double date

into the gate house as i am thirsty hank

thinking how others feel is what i want you to contemplate.


for once in my life i am not going to get my poem to who it is about for the fear it will make them want to drink even more ! instead i will just continue what i normally do and smile and say good morning ladys as i pass and as the nights get longer and less cold i will even say good night on the way home as they stay out longer in the summer. the point of my poem is to ask - do you ever think how others feel ?

[lovebroken]

No I do not look down on people at all, especially not people who have addictions that spiral down their lives and who have no one in their lives to help, care or love them. But I don't give beggars money, I worry they will further their addiction with it and not buy food, so I usually give food, or hot or cold drinks depending on the season.

[Hooo!]

With enough free time
anyone can rhyme
and use so paragraphs
so it looks quite as
if
you would have any metrum
which just isnt the case at all
and then you add to sum
a few nominals
blobber, oddment, tweak
are the words you like

i am done with this
as sunshine drips through the day
thank you.
