Poetry: A crisp twenty dollar bill

by J.D. Kay

Created on: November 05, 2011   Last Updated: November 08, 2011

He no longer has a home
Nothing more to eat
It's starting getting cold
No shoes on his feet

Hundreds pass him by
Thinking of them first
If one of them would just stop, sigh
And pretend he is a person

A crisp twenty dollar bill
Would change his life forever
But to get his fill
He would need to be a feather
