Explosion Of Homelessness

Since I arrived in Tucson
The number of homeless has
Increased by at least five times

Unless something is done
I expect the dry riverbed will become
A homeless community end to end

And then what
When the monsoons come
As they surely will, sooner or later?

Only one answer
Eat the rich and their
Lickspittles governing us

For their own greed
