| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 03/08/10 at 11:46 PM I'm often caught off guard by encounters with others, and even better, poems such as this, in how they teach me that no matter how bad things may seem, there's always someone else in a worse situation. Worthy piece of writing in how it reaches out in support to those who may be similarly affected, and provides some degree of therapy for you the author. |

| Posted by Glenn Currier on 03/10/10 at 01:18 AM Thanks for the honesty and the honor of allowing me to step into the darkness we all have - each a different shade or color perhaps. I affirm you for writing. For me, often, it is writing it down that puts that first crack in the vessel that lets the light some in. Blessings and peace. Thanks again. |
