Reena’s Exploration Challenge #86- Bleeding Edge

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #86

PROMPT

This week’s prompt consists of two words –

BLEEDING EDGE

The dictionary meaning is- the very forefront of technological development.

 

The Bleeding Edge: behind the terrifying new Netflix documentary

The $400bn medical device industry is exposed in a horrifying look at a string of products that have wreaked havoc on patients

A terrifying new documentary carries a stark warning that a nightmare has been lurking in the medical industry for decades and it might be in your body.

…

“If we can’t change the laws and we can’t convince companies to put moral issues above profits, then all of us really have to be vigilant,” said The Bleeding Edge’s producer, Amy Ziering. “My great hope is you watch this film and then you are really, really, really careful and ask a lot of questions and do a lot of research.”

…

Millions of people have been harmed by medical devices and millions more will if nothing is done.”

But this success is not enough for either film-maker and they hope the public, lawmakers and medical community will push for change in the industry.

The Bleeding Edge 

---

the harm they do  for  profit

to the poor and ignorant

is irreversible

greed knows no bounds

for the betterment of some

some suffer

their excuse

bloody,

bleeding edge technology

my only hope

the selfless people

who come forward

to fight for others

as they care

they bring awareness

and try to

bring all sufferers together

to fight against

the policymakers and

medical fraternity

to change the system

kudos to these

social workers

Crimson’s Creative Challenge #25

Longing

What do I long for?

Love? Friendship? Company of people? Peace?

Sometimes I feel very lonely

And the more lonely I feel

the more lonely I want to be

I don’t want to talk to anyone

Don’t want to mix with people

I just want to dwell in my gloominess,

Submerge in my sorrows 

No materialistic pleasure can calm me

Can give me peace

So what is it I want?

Who can understand?

How I’m feeling

What I’m feeling

What I’m longing for

Perhaps 

I yearn 

for that great comfort, calmness, peace, delight 

I felt when I was in my mother’s lap

I started this whole thing on a whim and the way you guys came forward to help is overwhelming. This post looks like a mini support group now for which again I am grateful for each one of you who joined in. It’s been a humbling experience overall.

Today I will start circulating through my trusted 2-3 friends outside blogosphere. I urge you share this post too.

And I would highly appreciate and recommend you reach out to each other too. That’s what helps the most at any given day.

I wont stop this effort here. I will continue to send invites, gather more fighters on random basis and keep on adding them here as long as I have energy.

Thanks a lot everyone for helping me through this. Your support and appreciate means the world to me. 🙂

PROMPT

I am not a fatalist. I’m not obsessed with darkness. Yet, a landmark development in astronomy this week inspires me to remain on the periphery of the theme, but not get sucked inside.

 

mother said

put all your miseries

in a black hole

you have in your mind

find your own solutions

and learn from them

no use sharing with others

they will listen

with sympathy first

but only once

then will start ignoring you

as everyone has some problem

which they want to share

understanding other problem is difficult

so be a good listener

listen with attention

and

I’m listening

till now
