Rough sleeper

.

I don’t want to smell

no one wants to be smelly;

have you got two pounds?

  • Part of a longer conversation with a man that I met this morning. Expletives removed.

Busker

 

Haunting sounds.

Accordion plays

minor tones,

singing soft

with melancholic stanzas;

I hold back the tears.
