To Be Brief

I could speak of wounds and memories,

Until I had no words or breath.

Instead I'll just say that, to me,

Life is a fate far worse than death.

Prose

Printed words are all that's left of many wiser minds.

Remains that tell of their struggles and beliefs,

Of how they saw the world, and how the world saw them.

Souls long at rest still speak today to those who read their works.

Eternal life is possible, wherever authors are.

Dear Father

"Happy Family" is the game you play.

The rules? Your lies that shift the blame.

You'll do anything to win.

Do I have to die for the show to end?
