the shadows in the light


The shadows in the light

They watch every step you take

You think they are the beggars

Sleeping in the open lighted corridors



You see it with your own eyes

The mind says they are the destitutes

They look for alms to stay alive

Dirty clothing eyes of lost ambition



You should step away and look

The shadows may play acting on the shades

They may have other business in their minds

You will never know unless you keep an open mind



Once I remembered a story up on a hill

A dirty man acted like drunk and beg

He would pick up throw away cigarette butts

Sleeping on the corridor living in his world



When he found what he wanted

He came with his troop and to look around

He was an Army Captain camouflaged as a drunk beggar

Some people recognized him for months he was around
