Stuck in my own world.
“change please?”
She acts like she ain’t got no change to spare .She got on some suit with a big bag and sunglasses ,living the life but can’t spare a damn dollar.
If I was her, I wouldn’t mind giving someone a helping hand
I mean-
“excuse me sir but do you have a dollar to spare?”
That bastard knows damn well he heard me too. I interrupted my own thoughts just to talk to him. Him and that lady can rot in hell.
I could be like them too if it wasn’t for being born into poverty. I could’ve made something of myself to. Oh hell.. who am i kidding? I’m only Emmit Perry Jr..
The guy who sits outside on 16th and Chestnut
‘til the security “escorts” me to leave.
If I had just a few dollars,I know that I could do it.
“Change please?”
She did not just call me a dirty asshole.I know I’m better than that
So what I can’t afford that Gucci and Lucci shit that they wear. I’m still a person,
When my mom lost the house, I thought that we would simply go to a shelter til we get back on our feet
But now that she’s gone,who do I have? Who’s willing to help me?
That’s what’s wrong with America now. Those who have everything, are willing to give nothing.
And look who it is. Another homeless guy storming across the street to where I am. As if this is not my territory. I’m in need, he’s in need, hell, we’re all in need, just of all different things.
He keeps talking to me and drowning him out with my own thoughts is becoming harder and harder
“Why’d you give me this? I’m sure it’s taken you forever to get $10.”
Without an answer, he continued to walk as I followed him to the nearest alleyway.
Oh my god. well I damned. The homeless man is the same woman that walked by me and called me an asshole. She placed all of her disguise in her brief case and left out of the other side of the alleyway as if nothing ever happened. Now I have to make sure I’m careful with this, because this could be my last chance to be the person I wanna be.
“okay sir”
I don’t even feel like giving the security any issues right now, so I’m just gonna walk til I find somewhere to sleep.
