new poem |
When will all the war end.The fabric that is woven, is too too thin. Working late into the hoursI listen to the sounds that give way For the night lends it's warmth to thoseWho work, toil for the bett... Posted by on Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:09:00 GMT |
blockade |

night after hard work |
All of us laughing. Telling stories. About how we first met each other. Drinking in circles.The masks slowly slide away like blankets revealing the bodies underneath. Here in the hour usually reserved... Posted by on Tue, 29 Jul 2008 00:59:00 GMT |
