WHO ARE YOU ?

WHO ARE YOU ?

He smelt of cigarettes and cheap booze 
Wearing tattered clothes and worn out shoes 
He wore his hair down to his shoulder 
Poor man was only twenty but looked a lot older 

They say his name was Archie but I can't be sure 
The home he made was outside a supermarket door 
Whoever you are it is upsetting to see 
How you are treated by the world and society
