Description
i rememberthe day her breath expired
that was the day the earth turned
burned
the words
of my soul.
the day that the no birds flew
or sang
and the day the ground beneath me
made my very bones shake.
did you know
that even when you think the fire's out,
it still rages within?

It was called "The Seduction of Peter S." I picked it up at a local thrift store. I figure if its last act was to be forever immortalized in the world of art, well, that's a pretty good way to go out. I'd like to go out that way. Not sitting in a local thrift store, unloved.
That's sad to hear

The words and the photo paint an image of passion and loss.
