Act of kindness
That is ill informed
Kills!

The old wonderer roamed
The narrow streets with his
Narrative.

There were few who paid
Him attention and were
Dismayed.

He was shooed away
Often by hands, sometimes by
Real shoes.

Act of kindness
That is ill informed
Kills.

His own act though
Its kindness disputed
Killed him,

For speaking truth in
The cloudy times of self righteousness
Is an act of stupidity and
Suicide.

The narrow streets are quiet now
The old wonderer is
No more.

We would use dead but it
May offend the sensitivity
Of viewers!
