The horror
that permeates the world
is inescapable.

It touches everything,
and everyone,
sometimes stealthily,
and sometimes not.

That’s the way things
are set up,
and always have been.

Yes, that is the way it has always been and probably will continue to be.

Thanks dear Ida,

You are probably correct. It's all in human nature, and the natural world.

Love Bobby

You are too pessimistic, dear Bobby, though no doubt you are right about the horror touching everybody, insofar we all have this potential within us.

But I firmly believe that horror IS escapable, if we learn to love this world into change. When the wellbeing of our "fellow travelers" will become our priority we can manage to change this world.

A nice surprise seeing you have written about a general topic.

Love,
Margherita

Thanks dear Margherita,

Here in the hood "Bones" is a general topic.

In all my books, I write about what I know.  I'd love to change the world.

It's hard for me to love the cruel, and heartless.  Of course, I know that something horrible made them that way.

"Horrible" having my own defination.  Surfice it to say, nothing horrible, as defined by me, happened to Bones.
