Homeless Heart
I saw a homeless man the other day
He twitched, and fidgeted and swayed
He was as filthy as a man could be
He didn’t belong there, obviously
He walked around in circles, mumbling
We were all offended, grumbling
His beard was matted, his hair a mess
I was part of the elite, I must confess
Then I was reminded of this heart of mine
That grows like a tangled mess of vines
The lust, the malice and my narcissism
Pride and arrogance, my own bitter prison
So, I kicked my heart out on the street
It’ll be the most pathetic thing you’ll meet
It’s a filthy, dirty, tattered little fool
A dry broken vessel, that thinks it’s full
