Having volunteered in the past and not a participant in unemployed client services I would like to volunteer that classification of application to process my admission to the tiny homes location

Defined without obstruction?
Yet, more learning is required if where people get a career move from.

Blood and bone—are we not the same? I ask.
I am her; she is me.
Why is she looking up—
While I look down?
She in rags.
I, in a dress.

There is always a silent wish  
Whispering inside me.  
And this is “poverty” —  
Yeah, this is alright!  

It’s a name of contentment,  
Glancing at little things in a good way.  

I just wanna become a blandisher,  
To cherish every little happiness...  
With an open and honest heart,  
No sorrow for what I don’t have,  
Enjoying life with my class  
On a single tablecloth.  

No more asking from the Almighty.  
“Nothing” is a fountain of joy.  
Being empty is satisfaction...  
Yeah, it’s a little depressing,  
But having too much  
Will jostle everything.  

All value will be lost.
Poverty is important
Kairos Jul 4
Poverty, all around.
The poor squeezed dry
by every system,
every suit,
every layer of government.

I’ve decided to leave,
to live light,
to give away what I no longer carry.
Not to make a point,
just to move.

No one told me how.
No school wrote back.
No agency replied.
No office opened the door.
I asked. I waited. I knocked.
Silence.

So now,
I give away for free
what they would charge rent to store,
tax to sell,
or fine me for leaving behind.

Not out of wealth,
but because generosity
feels like defiance
in a world this rigid.

They won’t tell me where to go
just how to stay in place.
I only heard rules as a reply
No humanity in their solutions

But I’m not waiting anymore
The world is sick.
I'm leaving my country and donating most of my possessions to people in need and NOT ONE institution, including schools, accepted it, many have not even responded to the donation.

Praise for the lady at a local shop.
Who went out of her way to make sure the stuff goes to families in need.
My worries are weak
Yet pipe dreams for some
I sob over leaks
they sob in wet slums

My roof is above
I’m full when I feed
They don’t eat enough
I’m stuffed as they bleed

Their bullets bone break
They beg for their meals
Their hunger won’t sate
Their fates, soon sealed

Still, I dare complain
While warm, homed, and safe
While they wash blood stains
With drains that drip late

Our savour and scents
And lavish plate stacks  
Their sorrow and cents
Soon spent on scraps

My fears are content
I sleep still each night
I’m scared to present
They’re scared for their life  

But them I can’t free
For them I can’t fight
So I’ll sit with my peace
And keep shutting my eyes
I feel so guilty knowing how lucky I am. People are suffering so much right now while I’m living so comfortably.

Post analysis of lies if medical licensure
Haunted oblique
Septic shock
Gutter clocks
Chained stains in framed abandon
If duty
Ended oath

Ambulatory excellence in homelessnessing with coordinated obstruction

Chalkboard gurls

Bury me

All is interchangeable
As it awakened in the void
I or another has not created reason
The interchangeable karma word
Existed
World peace did not
I's words had free will
Lacked in comparison
To contemporary ink

Religion is oppression

marcus aurelius was anothers student

Are is one of your names before the void

None of this is a scientist's loss

The Chinese is new,

but its name in characters --


is old: Dry Cleaner's.
Short stories "Gij nu" ("You now", 2016, Griet Op de Beeck), story 'terwijl hij zich probeerde voor te doen als mens onder de mensen' ('while trying to pose as a human being among humans'), chapter Four

Collection "Over"
Pip
Permanently imprisoned, Peter
The generation aren’t suffering anxiety
They are trapped as Peter Pan
With the ever increasing house prices, the lack of good jobs, the inability to form relationships.
We left our kids stuck, never able to grow up, so they rot, became more unfulfilled.
Imprisoned as a child.

Lack of hope, regression into computer games,
Fake achievement, never seeing a friend.
Trapped at mom and daddy's, enjoying a house price rise and a pension.
Knowing on an Asda salary their best hope of owning a house
Is to mortgage themselves to the point coffee is too much.
A holiday a dream, travel done after uni, not later.
And retirement at 75, ready for a care home.

Odd winner getting graduate jobs and escaping as Wendy birds.
If that was your life, wouldn’t you be depressed?
Score.
On PIP.

They finally get a house — mom and dad die, if they avoid a care home.
The American dream at 65 — homeowners, no hard work.
But not killing yourself before mom and dad
With ****, drink, or a rope.
Even a car, boy to see his friends — with insurance is too much to ask unless mom and dad help.
Three years at university — that being out on license.

Mom and dad need a care home, it will all be taken away.
Ironically being orphaned at 40 is winning.
Take another spliff, try to not look forward.
You will lose your PIP, have your last bit of freedom taken.

Oliver's son is still asleep on the sofa.

The only way to get a house
Is to get a baby when you’re not ready.
Hope the state gives you one.
Enjoy the poetry.
This generation doesn’t have Charles Dickens.
The beauty being made into delicate snowflakes,
To be crushed under Jackboots of a failed system.

Only the old work-from-home people don’t have to worry about the snow.
You don’t get a waterproof house as you walk to work.
Child unable to build even a snowman, let alone a life,
While mom can’t see beauty in a snowflake.
From their house, tax you to pay for their pension.
To envy mom's frozen tears, leaving no trail to tell of the suffering.

Of course PIP is gone.
Your low wage is the old greatness gift.
If you get a snow shovel, food, you might make your own path.
But I’ve Deliveroo food.
I don’t want to go out there in my boots.
I will catch a cold or COVID.
It’s number 9.
Close the gate behind you.

You step off the path — 3 stars.
Think about that.
I enjoy my meal.
Don’t ask for more.
Oliver sings and dances on West End now.
No dancing in my conscience for you asking for more, sir.

Bing bing — one delivery of gruel.
Get walking.
Time for sale.
Don’t eat my gruel.
Better be warm and delivered with a smile.
A second 3 star — you are on the sofa.
Hope mom got nice house.

Good news — it’s Oliver’s house.
Wasn’t he fortunate to inherit so much.
Now Charles wears a crown,
Doesn’t use a weapon of pen and ink.

No how dare u ask me for more
I lost my free tv license I will have u know
God snowflakes how much is the wagu today
Not frozen wagu I don’t like to defrost
How was job search son ? Find anything?
Well you’re only young me at 36
