To Each His Own Poem by Kyle Schlicher

To Each His Own



concrete buildings,

asphalt
pavement,

rain filled
gutters.

neon lit liquor storefronts.

homeless
living
amidst
cardboard homes
in alleyways.

feral cats
on
rat patrol.

pawn shops,
blood
centers,

street corner preachers
promising
a better
hereafter.

worn women
of
the night
promising
a
better
right now.

a living hell for some.

paradise
for
others.
