Red Fabric Silence

Alone,

tattered beauty

now seating for homeless;

upholstery hiding secrets

in red fabric

silence.

Comfort

for the broken

living in a nightmare

of hunger and cardboard housing,

while blessed view it

garbage.

Concrete

reality cries,

“Please don’t let me die here.”

Humanity gives its answer

with resounding

silence.
