Endlessly Asking

This day may I be somehow blessed
To make myself well understood
Let from my lips and actions come
Upliftment of companions’ mood

I would nourish those around me
Unendingly if I could —
As it is, I simply ask
To do less harm than good

Public housing being insufficient to her medical and creative needs, she is presently living, in order to continue working, in her minivan, publishing all of her works using one thumb on the touch screen of her smartphone, surviving at an income of a fraction of her nation’s poverty level. She would treasure any donation you might care to offer ~ http://www.UgiftABLE.com ● #72D-31S
