Homeless man sleeps on concrete
His blanket, the Sun
Snaky hair, don't look!
That yellowed newsprint, age or...?
Smell of sweat and beer
Rusted chain link fence
Claims paper stolen by wind
To join the debris

Thanks! I see this in my reveries and it's constant in my mind while dreaming as i sleep.
Wonderful! I love it. (Of course, I also tend towards issue statements.) Perfect.
Shalom,
