the summer is what it is here
the humidity clinging to my tired skin
like a crazy 50’s t.v. wife mockery
on Wall there’s the law and then there’s us
each side with glaring mutual understanding
that nothing is being done
no longer angels no longer devils
Gods gone fishing and they won’t be coming back
the species of Adam failed to keep their end of the
Covenant with Noah and Jesus holy shit what have we done
in life there is reason and there’s law
inside the soul there is right and there is wrong
inside the ego all is mine and nothing yours
on Koehler there is a man who doesn’t know he suffers
the fear he knows not himself prisoner of
the bio-hazardous ecosystem freedom gone awry
the filth the human shit the rage the insanity disease
the pain addiction poverty starvation piss trash
tears the waste of modern time
no longer get through the stains of a life
poorly lived or sorely wasted no logic
no feelings no rhyming no Kingdom will come
betwixt the cardboard and the shelter
the damage has been done
wage on me wage your wars
indifference is your nuclear weapon
Absolutely remarkable my friend.

Thank you, I’m angry about the homeless situation in LA. It’s absolutely mind blowing it hurts. I’m so very blessed but the feeling of helplessness and overwhelming sorrow is insurmountable some days. I keep praying and hoping….

The homelessness situation seems to be becoming an acceptable mode of living. Politicians seem to have given up trying for a solution. I share your despair of the situation. Indifference is a terrible disease. This is so well written and an apt essay on the human condition.
