Homeless Man and Simple Things

Homeless Man and Simple Things

A Poem by brucethemaster
"

I 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
