Homeless Man and Simple ThingsA Poem by brucethemasterI put pen to the paper and this is what came out of it.
There's a tv out in the yard
A homeless man watches it even though its just a blank screen He learns something new when he stares at it He sees the man he used to be I just don't know how he does it When the world is so hard Yet he believes it will get better He sees this when he looks at simple things He can guess the future by a fork And close wounds with leaves The ghost in him believes He can save the world with a tear It just leaves me scratching my head His approach is so weird But I see me in his eyes and beyond that too Could he be my father from our own God? The second coming from a tortured soul? Should I trust his miracles? Because I can't stare at simple things like he does I can only stare at my mastermind blueprint of my mind And I hope he doesn't charge at me in violence Is that horns showing? I must believe in the devil To be saved from this homeless man that stares at simple things
