A lot of my best songs from the 70s (my 20s) were freeform poetry like this one, but I can't reproduce the music using BiaB and even if I could spend hours recording just my vocals and guitar accompaniment at home where making any loud sound is virtually impossible I can't see how I could incorporate BiaB. But this song makes me really want to.
Re the theme, if we lived in real democracies - governments FOR the people and BY humans of love and compassion instead of by servants of the banks and corporations for the banks and corporations - there'd never ever be any homelessness. Most people think of fascism as being outright dictatorship, but I recently read that Mussolini, who coined the term, defined it as "the marriage of the corporate with the state". I can't be certain that's true - you wouldn't find it on Wikipedia anyway - but it's what we've got.

Here's a poem I wrote in 2009, actually thematically atypical for me (it's published in one of my poetry books):

The Lost Ones

Thank you for your really nice words, Chay.
Much appriciated!

That's a really good and sad poem you've written, and more people should see (or hear) it.
I'd like something like this in song form, even if it would be a rather long song due to its length.
Perhaps, as in classical music, divided into different movements.
