In towns and cities across America
Homeless people cry out in despair
Yet, it seems our elected officials
Forget their job is to serve with care

Beware of the Swamp Creatures

You are so right. They have a responsibility to serve and then try to gaslight the people into thinking its wrong to expect help. We pay taxes and we are entitled to it. Thanks so much for your beautiful poetry.
