Dear Mayor de Blasio: #HomelessCantStayHome
This weekend I spent a lot of time
telling a story in rhyme.
So here is my video note
to Mayor Bill de Blasio I wrote …
Dear Mayor de Blasio, Bill
30,000 vacant New York City hotel rooms you must fill
With New Yorkers who don’t have a home
Let our neighbors know they’re not alone
500, 700, 2,000 rooms is not enough
This decision should not be tough
And while you’re at it
Tell the NYPD to quit
This targeting and sweep bullshit
This is a global pandemic
But cruelty is epidemic
Having a home should be a right
And #HomelessCantStayHome any night
Yours respectfully,
Your constituency
P.S.
Here’s a tip
We shouldn’t have to make a fuss
Because you work for all of us!
