Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Different Approach

Panhandlers have it tough today,

So many out and about, so

Less compassion's coming their way.

Most of the time most folks say no

To the panhandlers because of

Their being now so commonplace,

Too much begging, too little love,

So slim pickings panhandlers face.

Student of human nature, I

Panhandle with lots of success,

Not like most panhandlers is why,

Helps not being human, I guess.

Busy street corner's where I'm at,

A fine panhandling alley cat.
