Growing PainsHis puberty I damn well knew it
I'm told to help my brother through it
It's a difficult task
But I still have to ask

The Betrayal of BrothersA single error in judgment,
A glimpse of time that follows us,
Generation to Generation.
This clouds our DNA, forcing legacies,

Forgiveness asks, and answers become silent.
Those decisions are unforgivable.
God's law, but...

Anomie~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So this is what they call anomie?
A grayness,
A blank,
All things devoid of beauty?
When the eternal arms,
Have left me to my own devices,
To toil in deaden land
To paint futile pictures?
I’m wading through waves, through fires
Surely to...

The Odd Sock
Grandma knitted me and my brother,
he is blue and I am pink.

A ‘Bad Friday‘ for Jesus
Our brother
Who bravely died for our sins.

Unexpectedly had his life stolen from him at 2:00 a.m as a

Different DaysI’m sitting in the sunshine
While my brother shovels snow.
Here the daffodils are blooming;
His still have a ways to go.
Many inches of the white stuff
Have been falling in the west.

As his shovel...
