Congrats on the win. I can relate to the conflict within between one's compassion and the reality of a society that is indifferent to the many who are in need of help. Sometimes, life is unfair and cold,and oftentimes, hopeless.

And you so earned the win on this one Sharyn. There are so many out there now. I drive by. In the summer I carry bottled water and hand them water when I can. When I give them something I always feel I did the right thing no matter. But you are right there are far to many that need help. A wonderful write. Linda xxoo

Comment from Glasstruth
Your writing is always a pleasure to read. Can relate to this. There was a homeless man by the library and slept outside even when the temperature went down to 10. Once I left a brown bag of food anonymously. Was sad to see him go one day. I got accustomed to see seeing him. He would clean up in the library. I suppose he went for better shelter. Your poem shows how we just avoid the situation, but you felt something and wrote this. Thanks for sharing. Les

Brilliant work Sharyn
Sadly at some point we all have to become numb to some tragedies out there. Otherwise we would go crazy.
You have penned a thought provoking - my favorite word - poem that should make your readers stop and think

Comment from AprilShower
Visionary, the way I look at, if I were to give to every organization or person who asks for or wants money, I would end up standing out there with that sign. Yes. Sometimes we have to blank it all out to survive ourselves. It's a either or situation.
I could feel the exasperation expressed in this free style poem. Well done.
