The World
The world, a fictional journey
I feel the world is burning but
But still I feel I might survive
Though my teeth are hiding inside
Inside gums not showing their place
Deep inside dentist can not pull
Reddened skin sore she cannot soothe
Those hidden sore teeth turning red
Tried eating bleeding on my food
Not to waste precious blood and food
Crying doesn't help makes things worse
I feel the world is burning, why
Why do I try when there's no way

"Why do I try when there's no way " yes that combination of hopefulness and helplessness gets you
Jim!!! What is happening? This situation sounds unbearably difficult. I am keeping you in my thoughts and sending healing energy for a speedy solution.
Yes, the world is burning – and meanwhile we each also have our personal problems. I do hope yours are resolved soon!
That was my fiction write although I do have uppers to take in and out. Sorry Helen
Happy to learn this was pure fiction, Dr. Jim.
