Long day gone, Tired is nit a string enough word, Bought lunch for a Vietnam vet, I respect his service, Not his politics, So unlike my younger self I shared nothing, He asked if I were married, He pointed to my ring, I said no it was my dad’s, He was an Army medic!

The screaming still gave me no release, I could not see who was doing it, I got more and angry, Then itContinue reading “WITH A BLOOD CURDLING SCREAM”
