So Valentine

Courage is the greatest compliment
Patience can pay to an old man
And a boy sitting on the curb
 
Holding a begging sign
But because I had no money
I went out the other exit
 
So they wouldn’t see me
Promising myself I’d go lack later
With some cash or food
 
I thought the problem isn’t
That some people are poor
But that a lot of people are greedy
 
So let’s have a war on greed
With our weapons of shame
And courage and grief
