I have lived
with the courage
of a temporary
tattoo

I chose
inks the colours
of sweat
and blood

so lady,
lift your head
from my chest

your heart
was opened
with a lie;
there’s a stain
upon your lips

Omigod - love this!....Powerful...your writing cuts deep and yet is so beautiful in it's imagery, tone.

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!

A very intense admission...

Well done, Sir!
