Discomfort
Cats can be comfy in any position This comes from my sense of discomfort in my writing: I want to be funny Write of beauty But there is war I want to walk you down flower filled lanes Where we watch the butterflies and bees But children are suffering I want us to travel toContinueContinue reading “Discomfort”

Opinion masquerades as truth far too often, and now the know-all-Nazis have bloomed on social media, sensible and even knowledgeable people dare not have an opinion. Many have left.
