[hometext] => I saw this pic of a beggar with a dog on his lap. And this came to me. My heart was sad for him. I tried to put myself in his shoes for just a moment.
[bodytext] => 
06:11:2014.... Sitting on a sidewalk somewhere. People walk past and stare. They don't know who I am. And surely they don't give a damn. The only companionship. My faithful and trusted German Shepard. Together we have traveled from coast to coast. Nowhere could we find a host. We ain't looking for hand outs. Just a chance to clean up and get out. From this hell hole we are in. Most likely cause by my own sin. Or is it just the hand life dealt me. I don't know and can't see. Why am I here? And not in a home on a comfy chair. Could it be I was lazy. Or could it be I'm crazy. Whatever the reason. I'm living this season. Some days it goes swell. And other days life is hell. If I could just have a clean bath. Or for a day walk a different path. So no I don't want your pity. And no I don't want to be dirty. But this is where I am. No I'm not a lessor man. I'm created by the same God as you. We just stand in different shoes.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
