Earth, neither Hell nor Heaven

Neither afraid of hell,
Nor enamored of heaven,
I am that fallen angel

WHEN YOU CAN BEHAVE YOURSELF

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Was,
Shall We Say
A Bit Difficult
As A Child

What Were
The Words
They Used?

What We Want Most

Revel in the scars

still bleeding out for attention:

Begging for mercy to no one,

our voices echo as empty seashells

lapping at our tormenters’ feet.
