Repairing the small details

I was trying to repair a bulbholder, a small part that may not deserve it.

Here in Venezuela, things are very different than they used to be a few years ago. High costs of food leave few resources to buy other things. Even small ridiculous objects may become unaffordable for many.

Shop owners try to avoid bankrupt by increasing prices almost every day. The constant nervousness of business men is strangling the common people. Big fish eating the small one. Yes, it's a sort of cannibalism.

We have to struggle with daily life the best way we can. Now we repair more often, 'cause in this moment replacing things is usually too expensive.

I was trying to repair a bulbholder
but finally I had to discard it;
the proper tools and screws I needed
were not at hand and were also too expensive.

But there are still some things to repair,
and
"I have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep
and miles to go before I sleep"
