Premium Member The Final Hours
Inspire lines, Lord Grant my mind' within these treacherous turbulent times; Misdirection now so normal, masks great evil in modes quite formal. The forces at Dunkirk; faced death, yet shared their courage and laboured breath As from their islands boats were readied, by good hearted folk; intent and steady The churches filled; and so many pews, exhorting God...

Rock Harden Heart
Thought in vain rests on rock Deep thought enters the heart Rock is to heavy for the soul It crushes deep thought Those who live in a rock house Should not though glass Eventually cutting deep into a soul Emptying the love of a heart A rock will never warm without fire Tears of a heart will only roll off Place this rock among the...

Come, Make My Heart Nigh Harden
O my life's pleasant breeze, my only dream, Let fresh breeze of better days waft again, Come, feel my heart-felt woes, if not just feign, To make lurid nightmares seem not so grim; O come, let me once again look forward To meeting you and make my grey life green, Let me pretend...

con't So Chris and I became aware very young that she really didn't care and might even watch us die without blinking an eye. Our goal was to survive until we were old enough to be missed should her control slip or temper ignite on some hot summer night.

Harden Street, 1958 (Part Four)
con't The damn memories are still so clear. And now I am alone, the only one left because my brother sliced his neck in what has become a family tradition, that is, to leave of your own volition.
