The news tickler announced
The problem of sidewalks and homelessness
to be addressed; later
When will later come?
If not now then …
When will more jobs be created
with sufficient pay for survival?
When will people in need of shelter
be coupled with an empty foreclosed home?
When will families unable to work
be allowed to stay in their homes?
When is the United States’ share of 58% of
the $1.19 trillion dollars misappropriated
globally for killing be used for living?
The news commentator didn’t realize the
Problem wasn’t an unsightly sidewalk
and the question, “Spare change.”
The problem is survival with nowhere to call home
