    • Powerfully written, highly realistic, and illuminating poem on some people’s lives. You wrote this so well, my friend. The ongoing tragedy is captured with vivid and clear storytelling that gives the reader a glimpse into what is going on with this woman through observations so clear that I can empathize with her. She seems to be a result of an upbringing that left her lost. And you illustrate this perfectly here.

      • Tragedy & the dark. As you can see that’s what I love to write about. It comes easy for me to illustrate. Thank you John.

    • It is a sad reality for most. But her priorities are fucked! Thank you my friend. Appreciate the feedback!

    • Truth be told. Life is often cold.

    • Another write that punches you in the gut. Well done!

    • Powerfully penned, Keith. Priorities lead to choices, great write my friend. Appreciate you.

    • Priorities schmiorities… it is indeed a sad reality for many as Adira stated. But I mean come on??? I’d free bleed if it came down to feeding my kid, something’s gotta give here…

      Also hope the POS who gave her the bruises got what he deserved..

      Well done my friend, you’re amazing as always!

    • You did a great job with this, dear Keith! You are a precise observer and fantastic and non judgmental storyteller who léaves it to the reader to make up their own mind. Concerning me, I pity the woman but at the same time I can’t understand that her baby isn’t her first priority. If possible, breastfeeding would be a wise idea to give the child a solid basis for a healthier life. Maybe, just maybe this baby could be the person to break the vicious crcle of violence, poverty and hopelessness.

      • Hello Sappho. Options were there for this woman but she chose what mattered for herself, not the baby. You hope the kid has a brighter future, but the % of that is very slim. Thanks my friend.xo

    • Wait, I’m talking to the anti-Christ? You need to get your number changed. I know a guy…
      Moral of the story is close the damn window when you’re taking a bath and don’t accept recipes from creatures.

      I actually thought fast food was a bad idea until I read this…

      • YES! I am the antichrist. Watch the next time you take a bath DK. Don’t eat fast food, eat walnut maple fudge! Thanks my friend. xo

    • This was like Rosemary’s Baby with a dark sense of humor, Keith. Nicely done my friend. Appreciate you.
