[hometext] => just tried to step into the shoes of a panhandler....kindly read n comment............
[bodytext] => On my window , She waves her hand. Tattered and torn Is what her body adorns. She begs to all , A few give her some , The others push to make her fall. The light is still red , And my car is at the stop. I change the roles, And find myself on my toes. The heat withers me , And I pull my shirt to cover me more The more I stretch , the more it tore. I stand aside and curse my fate, I curse and curse and cogitate. And then I feel , Some pricking eyes looking beyond my shirt. Adrift I walk, With no aim ,no goal. Who m I , a body without a soul? They stare,they ogle Desire to have me I run ,I rush before they overpower me. No shelter that can hide me , No food to fill me. I shiver at the thought, When I suddenly see her beside me. Oh! That wasn’t me , The roles were changed , Iam in, And she is the one out; with her box of tin Deprived by fate And rights denied for some sin. He denied her love and the buck , Made her a panhandler , Such was her luck.

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. ©
