Poetry "Homeless Hamlet"

"Homeless Hamlet"

Larry the Mayor of Dilworth
Sits outside in front of Starbucks
Corner of Scott and East
Full White head of hair
Incoherent rants of "ChillyWilly"at passing cars
Earbuds from his IPod showing
Moving his head to a silent beat
Up and walking his unsteady gait
Toward Freedom Park
For his private Jack Daniel's Concert
And later to attend his nightly Play
"Homeless Hamlet"
