Earth to Ash
"A collection of my thoughts, feelings and reactions, to the world around me"
Someday Again
Fist held against your chin staring beyond, adrift in recollection. A ponder of well-being was the focus of those faraway eyes. Rock…rock until contentment, unbroken ritual. You miss, you worry, because you loved. The tittle-tattle of your kindred always spawned a glow… Read More
