I agree with your assessment, only I also feel to be stuck in such a situation, one has to rely on our self worth to pull ourselves out ~ a Will to help ourselves out of the mire of our surroundings. City or Country type settings only Add to the scenery of the soul.
Blessings.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That is the saddest thing about poverty, you become invisible to others. It's getting better, there are people out there determined to help. Your poem is stark and to the point. Well done. :) Sandra xxx

Comment from Bobby Jo
My heart cries out within my soul of the darkness that surrounds this lonely world. May live abound. Prayers will be lifted up in the hope for the lost souls.

Comment from Lulube
Fallen by the wayside. Life is surviving the day, everyday. You are right on the money with your descriptive imagery . Love your last line My take on it; Along with hand-out, help them with choices. some have no more desire to reach out for whats offered. Devastation is a slow killer.
great rhyming and awareness for those who do not see.

I have read a few of these poems based on a picture. I couldn't write this type of poetry if I had a photo album. Your poem is the best I have read. Good work.

Comment from marinaluv
Stories of humanity are often times more eerie and unsettling than ghost stories and tales. Cities are jungles, and the people always have something to prove or someone to scare. This poem is a really thoughtful way to convey the anxieties of an onlooker who calls the city his home. Thank you for sharing.

You captured the atmosphere of an uncaring city here where people are abandoned on the streets and danger lurks around every corner, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Dolly thank you for your review!
Comment from Gloria ....
Excellent rhymed couplets, J. All cities have the homeless living on their streets, but not all cities have quite the vivid loneliness of this one.
It seems like however much is done, it doesn't work, as the problem seems to be one we haven't got our finger on the pulse of yet.
Excellent ekphrastic poem and a fine addition to the PIX this Club.

Gloria, thank you. The problem,in my opinion, stems from government programs that seldom work and lack of programs to teach people to fish for themselves instead of be giving fish.
