HEART has been replaced by profit. 

Now made of tin goes cling. 

Sound made going into donation pail. 

Or cup of someone who’s homeless. 

Of their wealth nothing is entitled. 

Sick or starving not their problem. 

Instead goes to lobby for more. 

Increased government handouts and tax breaks. 

Trickling down is selfishness and exclusiveness. 

People are disposable in corporate world. 

It’s a bleak place out there. 

Looking for those who truly care. 

Starts at home and ripples out. 

To local community, city and county. 

Doesn’t stop there, keeps on going. 

Until reaches president, of United States. 

Unfortunately all earth never reached yet. 

Along the way profit took over. 

Supply and demand the ruling entity. 

Wasn’t government designed “for the people”?

To protect us inside and out. 

People are dying because can’t afford...

The healthcare and pharmaceuticals they need. 

Doctors make less than made before. 

Increased schooling costs and insurances restrict rates. 

Wages trending beneath cost of living.

The middle income no longer exists. 

I could go on and on. 

Today can’t look out there anymore. 

Find the few who stay true. 

Heart made of flesh not gold. 

Live simple life full of love. 

If you find then truly blessed. 

Will not need a “social network”. 

Will not need alcohol or drugs. 

Less and less the depressing poem. 

My wonderful delightful husband found me. 

Heart of flesh recognized in him. 

He loves me and I him. 

Together sharing his heart’s rare treat.
