We have hit a new record
For homeless deaths
Before Winter arrives
Plenty time left
To increase this years total
While politicians pledge
To hit the vunerable hard
To pay off the debts.
The total includes
Children as well
It makes you ashamed
These people in Hell
Cold lonely suffering
Upon lonely streets
Ice frost and snow
Many more to reap.
While the rich screech
For austerity again
In one of many homes
Monetary gain
How many millions
Do they need to thrive ?
While the unfortunate sleep
By the kerbside.

- Comment from author about the poem: The UK homeless deaths reach another high while politicians of all colours cry out for more cuts to the vunerable to pay for their own economic failures. Meanwhile the royal palaces have so many empty rooms and royalty along with their government receive pay rises. IT MAKES ME SICK!!!
