lyrycsyntyme commented on: The Greater Tragedy by lyrycsyntyme 5 years 6 weeks* ago* Mhm. Well you express: Mhm. Well you express yourself as a fine and conscious soul, so I'm not surprised with what you sit with, and what you understand. Out this way, we have people trying to make it through winters out in tents and makeshift shacks deep in the woodlands. I'm also aware that outside of Rochester, there are people trying to make it in the wintry woods on the outskirts of the city, living in what I'll call 'tarp towns'. Lord knows if they're making it. Homeless unions have been forming, trying to give themselves some united front to stand for themselves, but they are greatly outmassed by the piles of cash in the hands of the landlords. It's an uphill fight to say the least. They need support from as many of us as they can who still have something more than a tarp over our heads. And, there are those among us still with roof, who perhaps don't realize it yet but will soon be joining them. As you said, spring is going to be brutal, in this regard. We're already way behind the clock. We have to unite now. And not with the politicians who want us to cry a river because some irrational stranger put boots up on their fancy desk, or because they didn't get four more years living in the world's largest castle. We need to unite with "the tired, the poor, the huddled masses." Dare I say, even those with caps or masks or flags of what ever sort that offend us. The hungry and the soon to be hungry, the cold and the soon to be cold, the soon to be stabbed or frozen to death need that from us, as much as anyone. Theirs, and each others basic wellbeing, is a concern we must all share and put above all else, with a now or never mindset. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: Kindness by owlcrkbrg 5 years 6 weeks* ago* Wow, is that true? What a: Wow, is that true? What a stirring thing to write. Somehow, you managed to write it in the tone of "Fred", or so I feel. I don't know that I could do that, with such content. [ go to comment ]
allets commented on: The Greater Tragedy by lyrycsyntyme 5 years 6 weeks* ago* At Least 3x Daily: when I eat, I think of kids in usa not eating anything. There are food and cold shelters for these sub freezing weeks in Detroit, but the need is about to escalate. Folks who took home 2 thousand a week exist on unemployment - are selling their possessions. Landlords not paid for 6 months are setting people out and changing the locks in 14 degree weather. I sit in my warm apt and feel blue unable to do what tax dollars should. I heard a figure for usa employment recovery at 2024. Want, psychosis, desperation, just broken: will increase. Expect tent cities this spring. ~S~ [ go to comment ]

allets commented on: Victory will Be Yours! [Unrhymed Fiverse: Poem of Five Lines] by KingofWords 5 years 6 weeks* ago* Plague And Optimism: We impeached a prez and further divided from 77 million lied to gullible. Reality has strange outcomes. The death rates equal millions now on Sol's third planet and here, racism grabs all the jabs, dear. Victory will be 2 jabs, if, as discovered in Mexico, the second jab is available. More will die due to greed and inhumanity. Hard real - daily. [ go to comment ]
saiom commented on: Becoming Canadian by gaurav2000 5 years 6 weeks* ago* Thanks for poem 1. Canada has: Thanks for poem 1. Canada has no government murder called execution... 2. It is less involved in illegal and immoral violent wars 3. It gives health care to all its citizens 4. It has cheaper drug prices (GOP senators arranged that it was forbidden for our Medicare to negotiate for lower prices with drug cos.) But: 1. Canada needs to cancel the seal hunt 2. stop bulldozing many square miles for tar sands oil 3. stop inviting hunters in from US and world to murder innocent wildlife [ go to comment ]

allets commented on: SILHOUETTES AND SHADOWS by georgeschaefer 5 years 6 weeks* ago* "Silouhettes and shadows": . Something or someone there to create the proofs od solidities as presence that expulses onlyness - there are billions pressing against umbra - hopefully for a long while yet. We, poets of the net, speak across the chasm of disquieted silence. A moment only of isolation here. This is well said and felt. ~S~ [ go to comment ]
KingofWords commented on: Victory will Be Yours! [Unrhymed Fiverse: Poem of Five Lines] by KingofWords 5 years 6 weeks* ago* Too much philosophical!: I find the comment full of philosophical insights, dear! [ go to comment ]
allets commented on: Victory will Be Yours! [Unrhymed Fiverse: Poem of Five Lines] by KingofWords 5 years 6 weeks* ago* Inexplicable Consequences: . Evolutionary maturity encounters plethora of apexes and nadirs. Dynamic existentialism presupposes failures periodically, partners expire, flood inundates habitats, Covid morgues sibling or protegy. Providentially, catyclysms engulf homo sapiens. Victory for disenfranchised Caste trapped excritiating conceptualized reigns when each agenda inculcates nutrition quests perpetually. Mininscule celebratiry occasion is anathema to multitudinous throngs of famish prone unconsidered and marginalized, Doc. ~S~ [ go to comment ]
