pillars of salt


tears
that dried
where
they

fell

into
dessicant
sadness

my

rainless
time

And to think...just 2 hours ago I was sitting
here wondering "where is Ed?"....and Poof!

Good to see you again....perhaps it was me
that had been gone...

I've always wondered how Lot felt that day...and whether his tears were ever dried. It seems to me that if he were a normal man, he would have made his own pillar of salt in time. I can certainly understand that, faith or no.

This made up for missing your words. Well done.
