With a look that showed disdain for men
Two stools down there sat a stranger
Whose face had the same...

Making things legal...

The sun above opens up the door
Morbid dark foreboding skies

Chaos AboundsI wake up some mornings - close to the crack of dawn.
Why does there seem to always be way too much for me to do?

This day is almost over and I am exceptionally glad!

To enter a burning building where their lives take...
