• Cardboard castle

  They call him a waster
  A tramp with no purpose
  Vacantly gazing
  Shuffling in a vacuous meander
  They don’t slow their steps
  Take a moment to see
  That his eyes aren’t empty
  Burdened with a sadness
  Hopes and feelings like all men
  With tales of trials and triumphs
  Torn and tattered
  Sitting on his cardboard throne
  Reflecting on his kingdom of solitude
