One would say, \'I won\'t give because I grew up a dirty poor orphan suffering where nobody gave a damn care to give me even the residue of what was luxuriously feasted, I had to work extraordinarily to afford a meal once a day until I could force some avenues, to become a vendor at a tender age, rising from the dust on my own till now and I am rich, so tell me is it fair to give and to who because the world is full of people who do not care for me\"
Still the mandate is a dictation, GIVE, not to join the group of selfish people by repeating their mistake by avenging to the needy who are just in your prior situation. so for humans, every reason is a reason to give mattering not that they do not appreciate.
Fine write Gold.

Ahh Albatross - always sets me off and away and I struggle to get back to to your agenda.
So, bit of introspection here - I view the statement you make, and ask which applies to me? I confess the first stanza, with the exception of the last line and half of the penultimate line - that\'s me.
The line, the truth, for me would read: \'I do not give to many because they don\'t deserve it and because I\'ve only got limited resources\' - Not much of a poetic line, though is it?
Stanza two - They will go straight down the gurgler in this rat shit societal system if they don\'t save something for themselves.
Stanza three = Believe me, you don\'t always get back, but not to worry as I didn\'t give everything in the first place.
Take it easy, Andy and do save something for yourself and yours.

Very true Goldfinch but we must be careful of not making people feel bad for not being giving. Many folk are not able to give of themselves for many varied reasons and as such they are no worse or better a person than the givers.
To be at a stage in life where we are sufficiently at ease to be able to give of ourselves is probably because we have been given something, somehow which has led us to want to.
Many carry or live under a burden which in itself can find them needy without fault.

Indeed they do, having been chosen with feeling totally suited to the emotion. Gaudy bright colours are not to be found here for the sincerity of content alone is the writers intention.

Nice tribute Andy, never saw a wizened old Brubeck step up to his piano but been amazed by the sound made by a similarly wizened Clarence \'Gatemouth\' Brown.

Amen!
if it is in love, we find that true shelter from this rollercoaster life of short-lived happiness and long remembered strife: then my friend you and Joyce have built a castle of impenetrable solace - to find comfort-in...

A poignant write Gold.
Loneliness, bereavement, etc can cause some sort of emotional \'claustrophobia\', if you know what I mean?
There is a finality in bereavement, yet if I say it, the Christian faith gives hope. I don\'t mean \'messing about\' with lots of ritual, nor hypocritical things done in the name of \'religion\'.

Brilliant!
so undeniably relatable, mainly due to your insightful choice, to word your wisdom within such inclusively accessible: vocabulary...
imagine if all \'great mind\'s\' had the empathetic capability to go the extra mile and record their wisdom using similarly humanist choice of verbiage: how many more people would they have helped, how many of the wasted potential in humanity\'s history could they have helped salvage...
I absolutely laud your inclusive style Andy, the most humanitarian of trait\'s within this game of inking, we lucky few find our solace-in...
