My mother was affected at all times by being a child of the Depression. Sad to see History repeat itself for our crazed politicians.

Loved this poem, raw, heartfelt and insightful "This is that emptiness where people hide their feelings" You could not have been too old back then... and yet what a clear and strong impression of those dark times. Great writing. xoxoxo

The great depression is a time even in todays repressed
situation, only those who lived through could know how bad it was.
