Life and death is determined by the tongue.

Poem Artwork

situation analytical...
to be at risk in a nation
hypocritical that touts
life liberty and pusuit of
happiness, seems all is lost
in a sea of political nothingness...

generation pitiful...
the future of our wellness
wails a tune that's less than lyrical
with foods and drugs and
well-dress'd thugs who worship
in high places...creating havoc
with a war of haves and have-nots
...see the baby's nose all wet with snot,
sweet Mother Nature's way we mock

Cynth'ya:

Condition: critical, may not survive.

Sad, when the poor and those who need health care can't afford it. Sad, when eating healthy costs more than most can afford. Sad, when those in high places get free health care, the rest be damned.

Things have got to change. When my sis was in hospital last year, the bill came to $145,000. And that was WITH a 45,000 discount! We're living on $225.00 a month. SOMETHING WRONG HERE.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

We are in a critical state; something needs to be done about our broken health care system. God help us!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

Good points, cynth'ya. You always make a reader ponder over what you've written.

point well taken, cynth'ya.
do ignore "polly anna's" less than civilized tone; fools do have to be endured from time to time.
peace and blessings,
