THE HOMELESS GUY
Folder:
EVEN WHORES HAVE FEELINGS
I was talking
to the homeless guy
after buying his newspaper.
His sneakers are awfully nice—
better than the bobos I’m wearing
and I notice that
he has a nice I-phone.
I have an android in my shirt pocket
so the homeless guy
has a nicer phone than I do.
Selling those papers
must be a pretty lucrative gig.
Now I know some people
will tell me I need
to hang my head in shame,
But, hey,
I’m a fucking luddite—
and it’s a point of pride
for me
to know that a homeless guy
has better technology than me.
It’s
the same shit you see in LA.
Florida....
New York City....
when I get panhandled I just pretend I don’t speak English, and act like a cartoony, blithering , Frenchman.
they skip me every time without fail.
i almost look forward to being panhandled , just so I can break into my dog n pony show.
A While Back
it was reported that panhandlers were making $30K a year, begging money. No degree required. :D
