‘Private Property. No admittance’, the battered sign on the fence proclaims.
It’s subtle code for:
” Not in my backyard”
” Keep the hell away”
and,
” F**k off ( pretty please)”
We can all hang that sign out from time.
I get it.
The need for self – preservation runs deep.
But as a usual modus operandi, it is a doomed stratagem.
Putting up walls, or even wire mesh perimeter fencing with forbidding signage, will give us privacy but also isolation.
Isolation, self- imposed or otherwise; loneliness – they kill as surely as war and disease.
It pays to remember, before we put out the rusty old ‘no admittance’ sign, that potential trespassers might be bringing unexpected gifts and even total strangers may become firm friends.

” If you want to know who your friends are, get yourself a jail sentence.”
– Charles Bukowski

You waved goodbye and went.
Or so I thought.
Left me to my own devices…
But you were still sticking around.
I can see that now.
Yeah, you waved….but never left…

It’s getting a bit gloomy , I can see you fading.
Much as I want to shed a little light on matters, help you out, now is not the time.
Night has not fallen yet .Perhaps it won’t .
I will stand by regardless my friend.
If you lose your way ,I can be a lamp in the dark.
Just switch me on if you need me ,okay?
