Defining Today

take the lot and run
go hide amongst treachery,
take all give nothing
now laws passed to protect you,
only the blameless; guilty.

A sad write of what is happening around us Harry, all is taken and nothing given, we have to survive, we are the blameless, we must do what we must do! Hugs and Best wishes, Jennifer.
