The colors of the leaves and fruit.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/BarbaraBorel/1870820/ My soul is afire with your eyes of gold.

The ones who bomb children and murder. That ta.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/BarbaraBorel/1868131/ Will this suffering soul never seem to cease.

Sometimes you're born there and it's all you know. All you care to know because that is easier. A sea of blood is prettier. If only everyone could see what I see.
