Supposedly things have gotten better. But not much…. It’s maybe a little more subtle now on certain fronts, depending on location, etc.

One of these days I’ll re-post my “Echoes” poem about the late 60’s. One of the lines was, “back then women blamed themselves”…. I think we still do. We’re programmed.

So much programming goes on disguised as education (i.e. schooling), information (“news” and “current affairs”) and entertainment. I’ll look out for “Echoes”.

You probably already read Echoes when last posted two years ago but I’m always pleased when anyone rereads my re-posts. 😊

I presume you refer to the poem rather than the situation it depicts. In which case thank you kindly. 🙂

I believe that the title and final line are often the most important parts of a poem.
