[hometext] => Double edged swords, read Reality Check first, this is another side....... touch stuff!
[bodytext] => I such a soft hearted gal, always feeling bad. For all the things I see nowdays, it makes me very sad. Feeling always helpless, for I used to always be the one who would help out anyone in need. The economy also kicked our butts, right into the ground. It has been such a long road back, we need to concentrate on our own household there isnt anything left to help much for anyone else. It rubs me in the wrong way, each and every day. Well now comes the flip side, my own reality check. Iv been scammed by some real buttheads, they as bad as those witches needing the big reality check. swift talkers, fast scammers, shame on me for believing. I have taken my last dollars, or handed out the last bit of our food. Knowing how it feels, my heart wouldnt feel so good if I didnt do it, they need the help after all........ maybe not...... I was told by many a person to not hand out my cash not to fall into the trap, because poor and hungry they are not. I at first did not listen to any wise advice given to me it is really bad right now, in our metro cities. I will never forget the moment, I caught some of them in the act and there was the beginning of my own reality check that yes infact, some of these people are true scams. They have a car hidden down the street, a home filled with plenty to eat. The guy that was sitting in the wheelchair, with his arm and leg all bandaged up I caught him running down the road, heading to see his buddies at the 205 interstate. Dumbfounded I stood there, rain pouring down my face, yep that tird scammed me good, wow what a jerk! Then the hardest of them all, I am a homless Vetran sign of course I got to help them, for the sacrifice that they made! Oh low is me, I took another on the chin they werent a vet at all, not him or him or him! I found myself furious, my husband served his country dont stand out on the corner, claiming to be something that you aren't! I blew my top the other day, made it perfectly load and clear. I find it a terrible thing, for them to lie while their buddies cheer. I told them my man is the real Veteran, get the hell out of our neighborhood and dont come back again, because the cops would be called! So now it is hard to tell, if they really need the help or if they are out taking advantage of kind hearted people like myself. I simply wont help anymore of them, if on the corners they now stand doesnt matter who, man, child, woman or vet. I wish them well and move along...... and now I tell them all no, my reality check has taught me a lesson..... if and when I can help it will be to the salvation army or shelter...... directly. And for the ones who are really in need, and their life is being made harder because of all these scammers and crooks, all I can do for anyone now is turn it over to the Lord, God bless them one and all.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
