The Beautiful Horror of Living Life

Mom how i love you and I am so sorry that life was so hard -- part by you another by people: i saw the horror when i tried to help you but the two men were grown and I was just a boy & they raped you -- it broke my heart. (them: too strong) I never turned away but felt i should look at the world to discover love. And how you sceamed for me to run away and hide -- OH never mother i'D RATHER DIE. I had a vision of a Life I'm living and how so many people turned away from this film of pain. I grew up upon a dragonfly and we flew away ------------------- The water was blue the whales singing blues and i climbed out of my head and went toward the coffee beans. I told the people: i have nothing to say but something spoke / i went into a dream \ and now we talk about history. God only Knows What I'd Do without you -- then you died. June 2021. I miss you. :: 09.15.2021 ::

A truly sad tale of the crueler side of life, as a witness it was something your mother could not hide from you, you have lived through it together, now your Mom is at peace, may you now also find some peace from it all . . .
