They railed against fate
Then became that which they hate
Pure hypocrisy

For the victims who become the victimizers. For Gaza.

The Lesions of Devotion
Every day I set myself down on the freshly cut lawn and strip myself bare. I take my guitar and finger the frets and pick at the strings, listening for dissonance. My life is dissonance. I twist the tuning pegs until each string sounds bright. Then I kneel, calves pointing behind me, kneecaps facing forward. All exposed to the breeze. I close my eyes and play the melody.

Effective! 👍 It’s unfortunately a common thread in humanity isn’t it. Read just the other day and liked but didn’t get to comment. I’ll have to check out Melissa piece too.
