Fracture

Liken to a rift that rips the landscape from under our feet.

Similar to isms or schisms separating the collective,

literally destroying the bond and togetherness that keeps the family as one.

The same unity which should bounds us by blood,

which should give us a sense of being; something so far, so elusive.

All sense of togetherness is all but non-existent leaving a 

desolate and barren landscape, 

rich once as land surrounding river Babylon. 

Only if our hearts and our minds were thus…
