Vinnie, The Bum by Zach

The choice
spoken by one voice;
the choice,-
thought by one mind...
defined
and trying to figure out
why we bother crying
over things that ain't never gettin' better.
It's all written in the letter.
The letter,
written by one man,
a man that doesn't have a future,
let alone a plan.
I am a big fan of this man,
'cause he know where he's goin' --
nowhere.
His hopes and dreams
of better things to come...
all lost in the reality
of being a bum..
