Dear Amor, I am living in my car for the past two weeks, and am NOT actually in one of the homeless shelters. They are what I'm desperately avoiding, because in my heart I feel that they will not be healthy or safe places for me. People who just don't want to help keep suggesting that I go to a homeless shelter, and I am sure that most of them haven't got a clue as to what they are like, because if they did they would understand why I can not head in that direction. . .and why I say that I need a "SAFE" place to live.
Sharon, I had no idea what this was all about not realizing what you were going through until I went back through some of your latest postings. It kills me to see what you are undergoing and I know the pain that it gives others as well as myself to see this knowing there is so little some of us can do to help. I know too, that it serves you little to have offers of mere scraps for it is all some can spare. I only wish more could be done. You are in an inhospitable place that I would never venture to visit much less reside in. I am too far away on the opposite west coast to offer you my sofa and shelter to avoid the cold and harsh elements until you could get on your feet. I have so little but know I would help if I could. I pray that you find aid in what you feel secure in with your safety in mind.
Amor
Do not apologize, my friend. Drop me an e-mail if you'd like and explain. If there's anything at all that I can do to be of help, I will gladly lend you a hand. In the meantime, as John said, stay strong and God bless.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
My book of poetry is being redone by me, I have a beautiful cover designed and the book will have a few more than 200 poems in it. I am going to have it printed on demand here in Canada. When it is done I will let you know when it is done and if anyo
