I have turned off
the television
because strobe light
and slow motion
and freeze frame
turn bullets
to pebbles
tossed
into ponds of flesh

Pondering this thought Anthony.
I love the way you make me think.

Don't bring me down now,
let me stay here for awhile
You know life's too short,
let me bathe here in your smile.

Broadcast received loud and clear.  It's the intermission that gives hope for awareness...  Powerful write, imagery, and message.  Nicely done.

Tony,
Another wonderful read.
As always I enjoy your words.
