About This was a new pair that I had come across recently 'she' the lady in the wheel chair, had just discharged herself from The Saint Mary's hospital in Paddington W2 - she told me that she was hit by a bus earlier that morning, it had driven over her foot crushing it and if you were to look closely you may see blood on her ankle. I gave her some money telling her to get herself back to the hospital which she said she would do as soon as her brother woke up. I also made sure he was o.k. but with him it was nothing more than over indulgence of the liquid form. I don't think she went to the hospital the money I gave her almost certainly went on drink and perhaps by the time she comes to her better senses (when that will be is anyone?s guess!)her foot may become gangrenous resulting in the loss opf her foot/leg or perhaps her life. In the U.K if you are considered a threat to either the public our yourself you can be detained under the mental health act 'section 28' until you are considered safe enough to be let back into society yet I see numerous people on the streets so sick mentally and physically that are unable to care for themselves for equally numerous reasons and while the 'SS' (social services) neglect their needs the life?s of these people remain on tenterhooks while they are nearing their deaths in daily instalments.

And across town people sip expensive wine and talk of thier portfolio's. "If you don't see it, it's not there" But in God's eyes we are all the same.
Thanks for the look at reality.

Hugh,

Great photo and a thorough explanation. Trully excellent!

Mind you, we all approach death in daily instalments, as it is one of the two sure things in life.

Congratulations on the really good work.

Imageopolis Featured Photo Critique Cher ami, vous avez jugé une de mes photos en estimant que j'user de mon Nikon D70 avec plus de talent que vous. Mon Dieu !!!! Que de modestie, car si j'avais fait une photo tel que celle-ci, je serai effectivement votre égal peut-être, mais guère plus... Merci

Los negros tienen swing
Los blancos pecas
Las monjas tienen ganas
Los niños sueños

Los muertos tienen sed
Los vivos culpas
Los ricos dietas
Los pobres hambre

Y al final la mierda huele igual
Sea de príncipe o sirvienta

El soborno tiene clientes
La flor olores
Los buenos tienen paz
Los malos fiestas

Los Lunes tienen Martes
Los Viernes risas
El mal tiene un doctor
El tiempo, tiempo

Menos mal que el cheque alcanzará
Para disfrazar las deudas

Quesos, Cosas, Casas
Peros, Paras, Porques
Quesos para estar vivo
Cosas para adornar
La Casa que crees tuya
Mientras puedas respirar

Peros pa' complicarte
Paras para explicarte
Porque es que estamos jodidos
Si hay aire pa' respirar
Porque si seguimos vivos
Las ganas de jorobar

El débil tiene trucos
El fuerte excusas

Dios tiene sus fans
El mar misterios

El dolor le da el sabor a la tertulia
El amor le pone alas hasta a un cerdo

Y al final unos sueñan con soñar
Y otros con no soñar tanto

Quesos, Cosas, Casas
Peros, Paras, Porques
Quesos para estar vivo
Cosas para adornar
La Casa que crees tuya
Mientras puedas respirar

Peros pa' complicarte
Paras para explicarte
Porque es que estamos jodidos
Si hay aire pa' respirar
Porque si seguimos vivos
Las ganas de jorobar

El que inventó la propiedad privada
No era más que un vendedor

Y al mono que soñaba
Lo convirtió en consumidor

De quesos, cosas, casas
De peros, paras, porques
De oro y Bisutería

De ropa y lavandería

De mierda y Peptobismol.

___creo la compuso un tal Arjona. besos anne...
