The Words As Your Offering: 6.19.17

6/19/17 7pm ________________________________________________________________________________________            ***** I will send you rain and low rumbling thunder to waken you while you lie in a warm room, on soft sheets under the light breeze of a fan and feel that all the world rises up for you.

6/19/17 5:35am ________________________________________________________________________________________ I awoke out of my slumber while dreaming of a captive snake: having to reign her in, after she broke through her tank and ate other animals; a voracious need to be let loose, biting at me as I grabbed at her any which way I could manage, as she burrowed under Read More …
