Bones and his young taste buds
have tasted, and smelled evil
too many times to count.

They live with it every day,
and night.

They smell it from
when Bones wakes up
in the morning,
until he goes to sleep
at night.

Bones can’t escape it.

It’s been with him
from the day he was born,
and will remain by his side
until he dies.

His situation is hopeless,
and will remain so,
until his final release.

I can see why Bones would feel hopeless.

Thanks dear Ida,

Yes, Bones does sometimes feel hopeless. In fact he feels that way a lot of the time.

However, like everyone else, he does have hope.

As an old wise friend of mine from Cartagena, Columbia once told me:

"Hope is the last thing to go."
