I am a Frog
July 2, 2021
There is a frog in my throat,
When I try to talk all I do is croak,
Wait, I am a frog,
I must be,
When I speak they just look at me,
Money please - any spare change?
But they just look at me in dismay,
Wait, I am I frog?
No eye contact,
All my belongings are racked and sacked,
Bashing me away with their hands,
The police come and banish me from my home land.
I am frog. I must be.
All their harsh words have metamorphosized me.

Hi I am Maria and this is my poem about Homelessness in England. In the small town I come from there is a large population of homeless people - Our government really do not seem to care. I want to spread awareness and humanise the unheard.
