Free Hand #84 (Praise the Moon)

The sun goes down, is swallowed whole by the darkness. We cannot see it anymore and there is nothing left of us but the moon, the devil, and the night time. Who are we to say that there is solace and peace in the sunshine? Why do we not love the night? Why do we not worship the moon for its tide-giving cycle bringing love? Without birth and death, there would be no life only one remaining constant, an unchangeable living death that would mean nothing.

Free Hand # 81 (Hollow and Worn Out)

Feeling hollow and worn out,

waiting for something else to happen

waiting for anything to happen that might

tear the meat from my bones and skin me further

till I’m just cries and bones.

There is only so much thinning that I can take.


 

If you are reading this Thank You for taking time out of your day to read my writing!

I hope you will return in the future!

Reflection and Poem on the Las Vegas Massacre

Why?

This is too much. All the violence, the pain, the death.

Why?

Does this happen?

Why?

Do people do these horrible acts of violence?

Why?


 

There is an overwhelming amount shock and sadness today that America is working through. I am appalled and horrified that someone would do such a horrendous act of violence. My condolences to all the victims and families affected by this tragedy.
