Emerald City, to the casual observer, projects nothing but grace and splendor but hiding around the corners are unwelcome offenders.
They sleep under overpasses and hide in doorways.
They’re always on the move, not because they want to, but because they’re told to.
Homeless veterans are the hardest to witness.
We armed them and commanded them to Defend Us
Upon their return home they became homeless and defenseless.
Our government responds with the following indifference:
“You did your job and no longer needed. You say you can’t find a job and you’re homeless? Don’t look at us we’re blameless.
We’re starting new wars so don’t distract us. You’re all washed up and inactive and you’re no longer attractive.
So make our day by getting out of our way.”
