Urban Scenery

The boy just lay there eyes dulled, vacant stare Needles spread all about another sprout, its life snuffed out

I lived that life, once upon a time. I wish I had listened to my dad. "You can't miss, what you never try" Luckily I survived. Great to read you again, old friend. I hope all is well with you.

Awesome, GW, anyone can write about this, but not with the clarity and the brevity, and depth I so admire. Most happy yo fave your outstanding intelligence.. Panagiota

So sad this path was taken - but this happens within all levels of society, whether rich or poor and whatever culture creed or nation, this unfortunate situation is forever present and is, getting worse daily as the numbers rise. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer

Worse and worse, at least here in America.

Too much, too often, and too frequently met with a shrug of the shoulders.

Sad, sad, sad, and becoming sadder, unfortunately.
