Cracks in the wall

Missing image
He takes stock,
and shares it with the bitter winds
as fine cracks
open to recession's call,
in this winter blustered
by such discontent.

    this photo just makes me sad looking at it... such weight on his shoulders... as if it started to rain, and he wouldn't even think to use the umbrella in his own hand. good luck to you.

    Your words paint the World's recession perfectly
    and the burdens of society hung on shoulders
    Well versed and really enjoyed reading... sadly in a way!
    Best wishes Julie
