AN original theme to a poem - bravo!
Language is much better, too.
Poverty has caused revolutions. Do not wait; invent a way out! Unfortunately, it takes more than prayers. Use your mental resources as you used it here to get out of this trap!
All the luck!

Karla,
Oh boy, have I been there! I always hated advice then...especially when it wasn't helpful or had a practical suggestion with it. I am thinking of you and I am sending warm blessings your way. ;) Silver

Been ther, but not ever anymore. I had to work hard to get where I am. You should eat. As long as you pay maybe $10.00 a month on a bill they won't do anything. But you have to pay the light and rent bill. Hope all works out, your in my prayers. Your friend in Arkansas...Ron
