There seems to be a drought in my… but who knows if it is the cause or the result of the war raging within me
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
