And every coughing car,
and every coiled snake,
and every shrieking star,
and every burning stake,
dissolved to atmosphere.
All of everything, erased.
I spread into a distant hum.
I droned along with everyone.
And the earth grew green and nursed herself to what she used to be.
All our senseless shouting calmed to quiet in her ancient memory.
and oh!
What a joy to be free.

Still walking the path to making good terms with everything. It's been coming along nicely. It doesn't make sense to stay so angry, hurtful, and most important of all, hurt. This could be said for a lot of people (yes, all of the you-know-who-you-are's) and as much as I want to scream at them how easy it is to be happier, it wouldn't help. It's something you need to accomplish on your own and I really, really hope they all do.
It's winter and everyone seems to be having it pretty rough. I wish there were a universal solution. It's bitter cold and it doesn't pay to be.
