Bones knows
that most people
that know about him,
and what he does to live
would like to help him.  

He also knows
that they don’t do anything
to help him.  

They don’t lift
a single finger
to aid him.  

As far as Bones
is concerned,
those people
are almost
as useless to him,
and just as bad
as the people
that like to hurt him.

Bobby

Thanks dear Passing shadows,

Some people are, and some people aren’t.  The only thing that is a certainty is that all people have them.  They follow us everywhere we go.

Love Bobby

I read somewhere in the Book of James, that it isn't enough to tell a hungry man, go in peace my friend, but rather to say to him, here my brother is bread, take and eat! There are, as the poem point out, those people who really don't care with demonstrative love, and as President George Washington said: ". . .it is better to be alone, than in bad company." I perceive that bones knows that. As always, I enjoyed, Bobby.  ---Art

Bobby,  This sounds a litle sad and hurt.  I hope you don't count me as one who don't care.  I do, but I realy love the funny Bones.

Thanks Art,

George Washington hit the nail on the head.

Bones feels that way too.

Bones is in an unfortunate situation.  While I may not agree with Bones, I do sympathize with him.

true representation of how most of the world is turning too. However there are many people who do care and i guess that will be the thin line between extinction and survival.
