A Poem about Homeless Life

The writer attempts to convey the despair of the homeless in a poem.  The poem is eight verses in length.  Each ver addresses a part of homeless existence. The second verse describes running to get away, sometime not getting away.

The fourth verse explains hiding like pray and many directions of danger.

The seventh verse reflects the cry in the night and the howls of the night.  To be forgotten by humanity for humanities sake.

The poem is loyal to the theme and a tone of humility of strife.
