HOMELESS
When you are lost, depressed and feeling down Travel into your city or local town and take a slow walk around I have no doubt that you will see, more than one British beggar asking for money Not all British-born homeless beggars are drug addicts, criminals or lazy Most have fallen on hard times that is no fault of their own I have at night witnessed them being beaten up or urinated on in my city When i have intervened i have been threatened or spat upon I have the guilt of walking past a few and only giving them only a useless kind word I am probably only. saying things that a thousand times they have heard Evil predators waiting to use and abuse the youth who are living on the street For many are lost and naive, the predators use the term that they are fresh meat Old timers and long-time homeless are just happy to see the sunrise each day Especially in winter when on the frozen ground all night long they have had to lay So when you travel into your city or town and walk around Spare some change or buy them a sandwich to fuel their body throughout that day
