Hi friends, I wish each of you wellness. I will be sleeping in my car for who knows how long since my time is up at the shelter I'm currently at. It's a 30 day shelter, and they have been gracious in allowing me to stay a few weeks past my out date. I am riddled with panic and fright. I cannot comprehend why they would kick me out knowing I have no where to go. I have been calling every morning to various shelters and they are all full. You see, the way it works is for every NEW resident they take in equals NEW funding they collect. They have already collected their share off of me, so as with anything that becomes useless, you throw it away, and that's me, trash, to be collected up by the forces of nature and bound to the code of street survival. Detroit is the worst place to be homeless. My caseworker at the shelter told me they probably have some openings in Detroit. But this particular part of town where the shelter is located is not a safe place to be. Not even the cops patrol that area unless they get a call! This is a dying city, dangerous, and corrupt to the core. Please pray for me friends, I hope a bed opens up somewhere nearby.
