We need a little help sometimes. We need a hand to help us out of the hole we're in. The more I love the more I realize we are part of this larger entity called empathy. We need to help our fellow human out. If you have the opportunity…lend a helping hand. If you like this poem, please consider subscribing.
Title-A Little Help
could use a little optimism
I could use a little positivity
I've been feeling so overwhelmed
I could use a friend right now
A person who couldn't understand me
On a day when I'm the bug
And the world is the windshield.
I feel like the biblical donkey
being beat for fearing the angel.
Every one has their sticks out
ready to stop and discipline
the perceived wrongs of life
I could use some happiness around me
I could use some help
turning these panoramic views
an kaleidescope visions
into things I can see and experience.
Can I have a hand to lift me up?
Can I have an attaboy for doing good?
Can I have a leg up and gone?
Can I have some helpful advice
that will fester in my mind
till it becomes a living motto.
Can I simply have a friend?

It's funny you reference that book. I read it in college, published a paper about it, and studied under one of Joseph's students who helped the book to become what it is. I love that you feel I am a hero. :) Campbells atuf can be seen everywhere.
