The Bum

Joseph Hart

At 2 a.m. or so
Just outside of Denny’s
Slumping on a bench beside the door,
Hooded, leaning on his knees -
He seemed to be asleep -
And was identical
There when I came out.
I oddly had 9 dollars
(I never carry cash)
With me and I wanted
To give it him for food.
I was afraid.
He maybe wasn’t hungry
Or just preferred to sleep,
He might be mean and angry
Or totally insane.
So I kept my money,
Walked by and drove away.
That was several days ago
And still I’m thinking of it.
