There’s a thing with a winding neck and long, thin, fingers and toes and he’s the reason for all of your woes. He’s got round empty eyes and an almost shamefully pointed head and he’ll haunt us until we’re dead. He’s trapped inside an empty cage and his skin is blacker than the bars at night but his eyes, they glow and unreflecting light. He climbs the walls and perches he’s trying to get a better view look closely...he’s looking at you. And above him there’s a banner as painfully black as tomorrow and it reads the creatures name...sorrow. |

(big hugggssssssss) And then comes the painful and sympathetic realization that that "creature" is much like us! (sad sigh) It is not falsifed to say we are all creatures, we are all animals climbing around and trying to figure this whole enigma out, God Bless You, this is excellent writing, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Colifer, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
