words recede
when darkness settles
and sound is heard only at the edges
muffled though they be…
silent sobs and absolute grief
louder in my senses
than gunshots and shouts of jubilation
because we all know where hate takes us
but only some will see it
guess it’s only visible…
from the barrel end of a gun
to them…it’s simply a god-given right
but their choice of expression leaves us…
triggered…
smoking…
not yet fired
but still undefeated
see…we’re just warming up
and the fight…
isn’t over yet
hello beautiful Willow I used to wish I had a gun because I was so frightened by society…now I pray I would never need one because honestly I don’t believe I could shoot someone great write ❤️
Daddy taught me how to shoot because he said it was important to know how to protect myself if I ever needed to. He also said the first thing I needed to know was that if I’m not going to be able to use it, it will be used against me so I should probably never get one. I’ve stuck by that philosophy since that day. Thank you, Brenda 🧡
The title sums it up. We all know where hate takes us. We do and some try their best to stay away from it and others well…
Others seem to relish it. Does make me wonder what deficit is within them that they think they need to fill it with hate. Thank you, Fia 😊
Mic Drop!
Thank you, my friend 😊
