Dreams on a wall
On April 6, 2021
- What has been left
"And then the wall rose,
Rose slowly,
Slowly,
Between me and my dream.
Rose slowly, slowly,
Dimming,
Hiding,
The light of my dream.
Rose until it touched the sky,
The wall."
(J.M. Langston Hughes in As I grew older)

everything in moderation!
response:

over spiteful remarks:
a real numbskull!”

Some go on searchin’ their whole life through
And never find the love I’ve found in you …”
