The reasons for homelessness are as varied as the homeless themselves.
Your lune is packed with meaning, despite its required brevity. The metaphor in line 3 is very moving.

This is an excellent lune poem for the contest
with a good commentary on the state of the world
and situation some people find themselves in.
Excellent photo to match.
Best wishes.
Robert

A very well-written lune poem about the homeless man who sleeps on a park bench and will go have a rough night on a hard surfaces with very little to cover him from the cold air and rain.

This is a powerful poem. Really think the last line is the icing on the cake with a strong and impactful message. You say a lot with just three lines. Well done.
