A Walk in the Park

A Walk in the Park

Beautiful birdsong interrupted 
By blaring sirens screaming 
The drooling druggie flatlined
As he was peacefully dreaming 
The festering fishless waters
The dirty feathered ducks
Pissheads pissing in the pond
They couldn't give two fucks
The cronies in the corner 
Hurl abuse at passers by
The toothless teenager heckling 
With a scar across his eye
The pigeons all eat dog shit
That's falls off people's feet
Homeless hide under the lamps
Soaking up the heat
Alcohol stashed in bushes
Cans in people's pockets
Pupils small as pinpricks 
In sunken yellow sockets 
People having picnics
Needles hiding in the grass
A lovely outdoor area
For the kids of the underclass

Great poem Jayne.

I love the last stanza

People having picnics
Needles hiding in the grass
A lovely outdoor area
For the kids of the underclass

Very John Cooper Clark.

An awesome depiction of the drugged drunk wild lives of the homeless , eloquently presented!! Yet many so called high class the high life night life rich folks have similar problems except homelessness.
Kudos!!!

Wow Jayne, I was blown away by the structure and purpose behind this write. It's hard to get the balance to write, but this one was outstanding. Worth a follow? I think so~ Impressed!!
