I have recently moved to the City of Roses
Which elates me as I'm one who composes
Little flourishes of words to delight the eye
So read of my experience as I go on to try
To capture the essence of life on the street
You may think it hard, but I'm hard to defeat
Especially when there's food in abundance
And the culture is rich in diverse substance
I was moved to find others just like lil ol' me
As freaks and weirdos are a delight to see
Things got strange tho as I'm schizoaffective
A shooting a block away made me defective
Fear did not win though, as I had made friends
Here there are so many people who depend
On each other and the exchange of kindness
As a result, I was able to manage the stress
That is born from starting fresh in a new city
So, if you see me, please refrain from pity
Because I am a phoenix and while I burn
Into something beautiful I will eventually turn
