thinking about the homeless

By David A. Giacalone

We’re not quite ready-for-posting yet today here at f/k/a, due to even more distractions than usual.  But, we’ve been thinking quite a bit about the homeless recently — and especially this distressing trend — and I’m going to put up a few one-breath poems to tide our faithful visitors over until the full presentation is ready later this afternoon.

– I’d usually say “enjoy,” but this time maybe “reflect” is more appropriate.

in the scent of summer
a homeless man

autumn wind?
a leaf and homeless man
cross paths
