You People

'Homeless yet hopeful'
I like your style.
But I don't give you people dough-
A smile, sure.
We're all in it together.
You return the gesture,
and this time I think
you're a genuinely nice guy.
It's the first time I've felt
empathy for you people in a while.
Nobody's got it figured out.
So who knows,
hobo with the nice smile,
maybe you do.
