A nightmare reality: titled Grenfell
SureshG said:

Luxury attained by greed at any cost
No matter how horrifically innocent lives are lost.

The owners, the developers, the contractors have to be held accountable, for stealing so much laughter that your pen has painfully recited.

Sickeningly we hear the loud voice of money speak when there are still many lives endangered by similar inflammable claddings which wealthy landlords will not pay to replace.

how extraordinarily efficacious a series of words you have posted today L.B ...
no covert message or meaning, but the hard truth ..
and don\'t we just need that once in a while ..
the truth that is to slap us in the face ...........
quite simply, spot on sir ...

Having spent my entire working life as a Clinical Specialist within the fascinatingly diverse field of mental health (psychiatry) and also consistently trying to engineer a more positive and accepting attitude toward mental ill health throughout this time .. and whilst also trying to chip away at the many myths, general insensitivity and grossly exaggerated tales of risk associated with mental ill health ... I could not agree more fully than I do with much of your authors note ... which I might add, is music to these old ears ... and your post of yesterday, pure poetry .............. Thank you .........................

Good words Mek, there are many out there who do not realise that they are suffering in some way and do not know it within themselves.

There came a sudden outburst from the media \'look after your mental health during lockdown/shielding\'. I began to wonder if I was going doo-dally for i had begun to sing bizarre lyrics to my ad-lib jazz scat singing around the house. So it took advantage of the opportunity to speak with the mental health services online. Well, over the next few weeks I was enrolled into the most boring and fruitless set of phone conversations I think I have ever endured. After a while i realised that the chatter was probably as keen to be shot of me as I was him. After missing one of his phone calls i received a voicemail stating that i had been rejected by the system (\"computer says no\") for missing that call.
I was so pleased. now knowing that i was not on the worry list and would not have men in white coats knocking my door.
Frankly though, I am a bit of a screwball nutter but unlikely to be much of a pest or drain on public services so long as MPS allows me to post my gibberish rants, cunningly disguised as poetry, every so often.

Thank goodness the services you outline are there for the needy.

Their is nothing so cold as a politicians heart. Their empty promises pacify the gullible whilst they continue to enjoy support from the very people who perpetrate these tragedies by placing profit before need.
Thanks for sharing this.

I thoroughly agree with all your words Mek, it is absolutely despicable in the way the powers that are have treated this disaster and now it seems that they just do not care about the people who suffered and are suffering. Money certainly talks.

\"Tell me, how do we teach our children to hope: for better?\" - such a very true line in your words.
