Donnie

From an unpublished collection

Sharing this poem I wrote that was inspired by an old buddy of mine in San Francisco. He liked to sleep outside and nothing could stop him.

These two pieces are part of a series of works that were inspired by living in San Francisco, specifically inside the Tenderloin District.

Hope you enjoy it,
