Challenge Day 205

205. Hunger: Write from the perspective of someone with no money to buy food.

I live in a shelter with metal sheeting for the walls and roof. It leaks when it rains, it is too hot when it’s hot outside, and too cold when it’s cold outside. The floor is dirt and sometimes I can find old clothing or cardboard that someone has thrown out so I can either line the floor or stuff in the joints of the roof and walls. There are many shacks like this outside the door. Trash is piled up everywhere, I have no private toilet but there is a running tap of water for us all to use. How am I going to get out of this place?
