it's a real crime

 
 
 
recently  
 
our city council made  
it illegal to be homeless  
in public
 
since when did the poor
and destitute become
criminals for being poor
and destitute  
 
bulldozers came and  
bowled over a homeless  
encampment  
 
...just when I think our  
species can't get any  
lower  
 
I get proven how wrong  
I am...  
 
again  
 
  again  
 
    and  
      
      again  
 
one would think that
after 65 yrs I would
have learned my
lesson by
now
