Like breathing
Or seething.”
Desires denied
Sorrows...

Thinking I had chosen carefully over 37 others. ...

Counted gasps of last breaths foreboding his hopeless waiting,

A School Massacre - a RepostForgive me but I just don't understand
What drives “people” to enter a school
Massacre forty young people
And burn their female teacher alive

For suspicion is my daily bread;
Every word a leery undertone,
Every smile with hidden intent;
That such evil so...

sucking acrid marrow's gritty pith,

Crux of the Matter
Written: by Tom Wright

But she drinks in courage to face the future
