He struggled with his life along  
He was cheated by the destiny of Swings blown  
He wrapped himself around the tales of his fate  
He spent his days waiting for a stranger’s grace. 

He had worn clothes with diets and holes for air
On the scales of his skin showed he had a deep thirst burn 
He planted him around the traffic light and gates  
And waited for the vehicles to stop from the flights, gone late. 

They gave him clothes with threads so bare  
And he gave them blessings in bundles of prayer  
They offered food almost to be thrown off the window plane 
But he took even those with the gracious smile again. 

The street, our Garbage pail we call 
Was his only night bed to lay on all  
It was the small world of sunshine his fate had booked, 
While everyone in the state called him, a beggar hooked. 

         I wondered…. 

How has he spent his days this long? 
Did he do anyone wrong? 
Why did he end up under this cloud with no roof upon? 
He was seeking only but for food, why received a name for fun?
