A homeless man crosses his heart with pain
heels wearing thin. Each step
groans across another block, two bags
of donated clothes heavy

hunger gnawing as he
joins a flood of Christmas joy

pretends he's part of the excitement
shoes slapping, heart pounding
stomach aching
bags lighter with each new fantasy.
