STREET WISE

Submitted by Ja Ja on Sun, 2017-11-05 08:13

If you see
A poor old man
Sitting on the street

Then pick him up
Dust him off
And put him on his feet

But if he starts
To complain
By giving you some lip

Then sit his ass
Right back down
And don’t leave him a tip

Just goes to show that some people like where they are and resist having to change. I wouldn't change a thing. ~ Geezer.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

some people are okay with the current situation they are in, but if they never demanded for help or don't want to leave where they are and continue, let them be.

always remember to make a critique of other poems
using the hoe is not madness for nothing
