The Raggedy Man

The threadbare people huddle
Their breath puffs of fog
Their skin icing over
Once in awhile a body found in the park
Stumbled upon by a pampered child
A pup who cannot yet comprehend
Assimilate freezing cruelty and neglect
His parents lead him away
Telling him the raggedy man is only sleeping.
