DIRECT HIT

I pass by quickly Realizing it was real A huge chunk, missing Where fear tried to kill ...desire I've tried to be a child Play and imagine fun But every time he came My little mind would run ...fast Blahda blah, my mouth opened Swallowing breath of pain Choking on speed While pleasure gained ...soul Today, at this very moment I stopped, and filled the hole Smoothed out the earth So anyone can go ...home Written by Trudy Schrader on 01-06-2023

It is astounding how much trauma can damage the psyche...desire takes a direct hit.
