New York’s Neediest Cases Fund prompts us that others, even less fortunate, often relapse into a previous condition, mode of conduct or criminal behavior. It is a bleakness not to be wished on anyone, reminding us there is much to be thankful for.

The Neediest by Odin Roark Still life furnished room Broken chair One dare not sit on Narrow bed Hard to sleep on Table leaning Daren’t eat on Two-burner Caked hard with spilt on Out the window Hope often stomped on Someone’s present year Destined to be long gone
