Look In The Mirror

What is a mistake if not a way for us to learn.Fumbling should never lead to eternal spurn.For who amongst us is without a blemish?None, so don’t come swinging your sharpened axe.These condemnations are ignorant of facts.Desperate actions by dreadful souls.The sort whose life is filled with callous goals.Exploiting the young, naive or poor.Knowledge shouldContinue reading “Look In The Mirror”

False Dominion

Hand reaches from debris.Screams of reliefContinue reading “The Mountain”
