Lost Warriors


Homeless Veterans Sue Over Neglected Campus

Living in a tent
Deep in the forest
In the company of ghosts

Wrapped in dirty wool
Sleeping on heating grate,
Hands cupped into an empty bowl

On park benches and midnight buses,
In shelters and under bridges,

Lying as if wounded,
Platoons of lost warriors
Longing to return home.
