The Homeless Life

I have nowhere to go, I am on a constant roam
I live by the motto, wherever I lay my head is home. From time to time I stay in a shelter
But usually not for very long, because I cannot abide by their rules.
That is why right at the moment...I AM HOMELSS

The streets are not safe for me
But right now I have nowhere else to be
I do not sleep very well
Living on the streets is a living hell
But right now I have no other choice,
I AM HOMELESS
- poem by Betty Kope-Crawford -

This reminds me somehow of the dust bowl picture of the mother and her children; it portrays the extremity of human existence.
