A Beggar Speaks (Free verse) by WondrousMoment
This is the place
where, lying face
down in the dung-mixed mud I found
a tiny thrill:
a dollar bill
tucked underneath a smelly mound.
While getting up
(cash in my cup)
I heard âWhy, thank you! There it isâ
a sleek gloved hand
extended and
what had been mine was once more his.
I lay and sighed.
Then I arose
(Shit on my nose)
To ask if he could spare some cash.
But as I tried
he went in, yes,
to CVS
and bought himself some body-wash.
