This poem would allow anyone to somewhat understand. None of us can truly understand, unless we've been thru it personally. Outstanding write, I will give you a 10 for sure Ross! Thank you for sharing this with me. Hugs 2 yah, Linda

A sequence of minor disasters which add up to tragedy and unhappiness, probably depression into the bargain, and perhaps a sense of a wasted life... since a sense of being efficacious is essential for self esteem. These two poems have hit home pretty hard here Ross...The writing as always with you is measured, crystal clear, never overdone, and does the job exactly as you intend. .. It would have been so easy to turn this into farce.. but there isn't a hint of it, such is the humanity of your approach...... This work definitely needs to reach a wider audience.... It has been a considerable wake up call for this reader... Excellent writing. jim
