Rough side of the mountain

Back in the 90ties..homeless Women were all over the place.  old and middle aged women. When you saw them...you knew, mental illness was lurking near...  I often wondered what situation in life pushed them over the edge.  They became my obsession...I sat down one day and imagined a scenario that would push me over the edge...what would cause them to expose themselves to the rapes and beatings they face daily..I wrote a one woman act....then I took it to the churches. At that time the church was pretty prosperous and had very little compassion for homeless women. I wanted to proke comapassion for them...I wanted the church to realize..."but for the grace of God..there goes I"...Have a listen.
