I am honored to be the first to review this poem, my dear friend. Yes..love is COMPASSION for others , for the children who are abused and neglected in this world. I know that you have great compassion for them as I do, and we both write for them. We both shout for them. For they cannot shout for themselves for their fear. Keep writing, and keep being the dens poetic prophet!

Your true friend, Linda

TRASK,

I know the cost of living in California is outrageous, but it's getting ridiculous in other parts of the country. If I could afford a house, I'd have moved in already...as it is, I'm paying too much rent for a substandard government apartment...just try to get anything fixed. YEAH, RIGHT. If we make any home improvements at all, like ceiling fans for example, we have to leave them behind when we move for the next tenant...WHO NEVER SEES THEM! The maintanance staff gets them. BULL!!!!!!!!!

Greed is part of life...just wish those in charge would live on our level...and make the little money we make...and try to live on next to nothing.

Excellent rant, my friend, I hear you...we're on the same page today, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! I'm tired.

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