This really hits so many issues in just one short poem. For some reason it brings to mind the insane deportations…families torn apart. Probably because that’s my fear, my daughter…Muse on, my friend. I’m here for it

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Being an alcoholic who no longer partakes, I’ll say the biggest thing I’ve learned is how many people I hurt. When I was consumed by the disease, I couldn’t see that. I rationalized I was only hurting myself, that’s how hollow I had become. Appreciate you.

Thanks. Something tells me I have a chance to make more money in the next 5 – 10 years if I do something unique.

Pinkdreams, I love this poem! You spoke for all those stuck between the past and the future. Your courage is a wonder to behold. To set off after years maybe decades on this new adventure takes courage. I also enjoyed reading about the challenges you faced as a teacher. Love the tone you set for this poem. Enjoyed this much.

Thanks, John. I have nine teaching days left, and it feels like too much. I’m going to give myself a month off, and then see what kind of new path I can forge.

It’s never the heart that gets broken, just the mind.It never returns to its former self but wabi-sabi.

OMG, I had never heard that song either until that competition. I wrote something for it too, but it sucked. Thank God you came to get me, Sam. You do realize that I’m not wearing a damn thing under this raincoat, right?
