Was He Just Like Me? Repost

For those who missed it, this was part of my "Vegas Diaries" series from last week's day labor foray into Vegas:

See that man on the street,
Was he just like me?
Did he once have a home
And a family?

Did doubts and fears
Drive him away?
The same doubts and fears
That I know today?

After weeks of longing
For his children to hold
Did he just give up,
Did his heart grow cold?

If that man on the street
Is like me some way,
What will keep me from being
That man one day?

Respectfully submitted,

Gideon MacLeish
