Recoiled evolution, burnt out Arctic Char
A visionary loophole, contrived by man
Secondary nature, its all the master plan

With no purpose, I watch the banter unfold
Hallucinations surrender, the madness unfolds
Of this man, hallowed from core to bone
Broken & Black, my how you've grown

So, on to the next set of retributions
Bury the axe, reach no conclusions
Swim to the edge, just to watch yourself drown
Dizzy your tongue, try to reach a verbal noun

I've got got a place to seek shelter there
Aleve your relief’s and destroy your fears
And when you tire and want to feel whole
Just stop at the ledge, the answer lies in your soul.

Tis a different way to speak of a homeless man..i've actually watched and tried out of curiosity to live the life of a homeless person once just to see what it's like to not have anything....but they have so much more than anyone realizes....this poem is uniquely written, i think it's beautiful...your talent shines through.....thanks for sharing it...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
