| the bucket
the sign the cold stares |
| by Scot Young |
| there are 3 homeless guys
living under the bridge on truman road you can see their damp blankets cardboard water bottles lined up tucked under the steel each have a section for sleep share the sounds of semis and sirens on their ceiling they spend the day sitting on plastic buckets holding signs homeless hungry waiting for an angel to come down waiting for a window to roll down you know the guys the bucket the sign the cold stares like a dull sun shining off a winter lake like waiting for the ice to freeze enough for christmas skates you know the guys you’ve see them everyday through tinted glass you turn away like that child afraid if the ice breaks you will have to ask for help |
