Addiction to Prison

A culture steeped in retribution
becomes blind to freedom's contributions
accessed best through healing restorations,
trust,
virtual stuff
for democracies most resilient.
A society resisting love's innovative brilliance

Silent Killer
by Adam Forth
Abused.
Mistreated and used,
Thrown to your knees,
After being misused.

Lying in wait,
As you say your goodbyes.
Quake.

by Janice Canerdy

stand here
traumatized,
quaking in fear,

I’m home—will see my half-done

Should I burst from this closet and run?
Too late!...

Don't speak of God's redemptive healing
