Out and out

Out
And down
Down and
Out
Evicted
Shoved out
Out to the street
Running completely
Out of luck
Out of cash
Out of love

He stands waiting
Now
Hand outstretched
A sign around his neck
"Anything helps"
This sign just a big lie
As nothing really helps

Hand out
Cup out
Asking each person
Passing by
So politely

Buddy
Can you spare a dime?
A smoke?
A dollar?
The time of day?

Have a nice day
God bless you too
Thanks so much
For your time
And your spare change
