Good for Nothing

Good for Nothing
-C. Taylor

Unsightly,
isn't it ?
This ragged man,
holes in his clothes
burning your pride
with his scribbled words about
injustice
and hunger,
amidst plenty.

Why can't he just shut up and be happy ?
Not everyone can be well off

he should serve coffee,
or gas

not hurt people
with visions
of the scars of the world.

"Don't judge a book by it's cover",
he's saying,

“my mind burns
like the sun,
and my soul touches
the blood of this earth,
rock that moves like water..."

How can we believe
his crazy rantings,

he is only a bum,
good for nothing.
