Editor’s Note: The SB Homeless Day Center and Winter Shelter is being remodeled. It plans to move across the street from an elementary school. SB Community Academy mothers, we’ll call them S.A.M., are outraged over the shelter.

Do you like these homeless beds?

We do not like them, S.A.M. has said.

We do not like their homeless heads.

Would you like them here or there?

We would not like them here or there.

We would not like them anywhere.

We do not like their homeless heads.

We do not like them, S.A.M. has said.

Would you like them near your school?

We would not like them near our school.

We do not like them as a rule.

Would you like your kids to learn?

We would not like our kids to learn:

Not about an economic downturn.

Would you like them outside your door?

We would not like them outside our door.

We do not like to think about the poor.

Would you like them in the park?

Where would they go after dark?

We would not like them in the park,

So much as deported in an ark.

Would you, could you, spare some change?

Of course we could spare some change,

But don’t you know, they all have mange?

Would you leave them in the rain?

We would like them in the rain,

If it would wash them down the drain.

Would you like their shelter to fail?

We would like their shelter to fail.

You know they should all be in jail.

Would you let their shelter be?

We would not let their shelter be.

The kids might see it from the SUV.

Your logic here sounds kind of hazy.

Our logic here is not kind of hazy.

Bums are all just drunk and lazy.

Would you, could you, tell them where to go?

No.
