Blackness


As my neighborhood still struggles to regain power and clear streets a week after a wind storm I wonder were all the good things have gone. As I look at the window I see people moving around with no more regard or worry then before. Maybe their used to not having power, or food. I didn't see the out pouring of help and togetherness I read about in New York and New Orleans. Maybe these were just worst situations and there is a level needed before the human gene of a village kicks in. Or maybe the poor, don't help the poor. Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough. Maybe, just maybe misery loves company, and they don't want the company to leave.
