Life Not Tasted

Aimless
Shameless
Nameless
Claimless
Downward, his life's path:  Aimless, shameless
A legacy lost:  Nameless, claimless

I don't really remember the rules of this form but I really like this how it reads and SOUNDS. Fave on this one!

Wow. A Fave. Thank you so much, Andrea. From you, this is high praise, indeed. Best wishes, Gershon

I guess this means that this tyburn 'makes the grade!' Thank you so much, Line. ~ gw

What a lost soul this would be - you see plenty under bridges - what brought them to this claimless destitute situation. Great write Gershon, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

In Chicago, they're out actively begging at busy intersections… Someone once told me, 'Everyone is someone's precious baby...' It all makes one wonder. :) gw

Such a skilled, insightful tyburn, gw (will have to try on a tyburn soon!)

Thanks for the encouragement, Michelle. Now the question is this: Should you try on a tyburn, or should you tie on a tryburn? As Trump always says, "We'll see what happens..." (Hope you're not irritated that I invoked 'him.' Whenever he says that, I chuckle). Best wishes, gw
