I am a stranger
in my own mind
a ghost lost somewhere
in time.
Like mister bo jangles
i`ll sing and dance
for a dime.
What goes through a mans mind
that would make him sit on a corner
and beg for a dime,a bottle of wine
has he gotten lost somewhere in time.
Has he given up on life
did he ever have a family,a wife
what struggles in his life caused this strife
Did some one love him
somewhere back in time
before he lost all reason and rhyme
just another poor soul lost in time.
So the next time you pass him bye
think of him as a human being lost in time.
He could possibly be a lost soul, but to think of him this way is wrong, To pray for him is good. He is equal to anyone eles but he just lost his way. Pray for them to find it.

hi ron,
you commented me on my poem a long time ago, and i haven't really been on in a while, and then i just wrote two new poems, and now im on and i read your comment. no my father did not give up, he died from cancer, and he fought it like crazy. he wanted so much to live. he died march 29th ((2004)). i really like this poem that you wrote... its really good. anyways, thanks for taking time and reading my poems and commenting me! i really appreciate it.

wow Ron this is profound,makes you visualize the person.Wish more people would more then visualize and walk by them. I have helped homeless in the past so have heard many stories.Met a con and met a genuine lost soul.Even the con leaves a lesson to be learned and not one of negativity.The con is more lost then the genuine because they are not aware of it and that is the saddest of all.The con skipped off with my crockpot. Of all things huh I laughed initially...
