End Homelessness, By: Micheal Farrell

January 2, 2025 by Micheal Farrell

End Homelessness, By: Micheal Farrell

The Prince he came.
To talk about homelessness,
People listened, not believing,
To a word he said.
We can do it together, end homelessness,
The Prince kept repeating,
No one listened any more,
They knew these empty words,
The knew about the roomy palaces, the holiday retreats,
The extra rent he collected every week,
From property he owned,
No ending homelessness here,
only adding to his wealth.
