Standing Up Again! (Free Verse Homeless Poem)
Standing up again
© Andre M. Pietroschek, all rights reserved
Standing up once more;
So being expelled from society was a challenge, not a chore:
As my ego recovered, standing alone for myself even more!
Standing up again;
Coz the cold of winter did not cripple away from trying,
I knew, new work was the choice, not cheating or lying.
Standing up once more;
Coz neither disease nor crime ensured premature dying!
No justice in it, but I waste no time on sobbing or crying.
Standing up again;
For life does not bow to political zeal or religous fervor,
My new stalker & tyrant the hacker idiot on that server.
Standing up once more;
While the mainstream pretends all is easy, pretty & good:
Hostile clans & criminals lurk 24/7 in my neighborhood!
Standing up again;
For the good god, who abandoned me, did judge so anyway,
I'm gonna care for myself, hence I've nothing else to say!
