Love evolves –a considerationwe overlookedthose day whenpassion drove usto fanciful displays Tried to align myselfto the certaintyof your dreamsbut my compasswas set elsewhere Memory, thoughhas tattooed uson my heart;the ink still bleeds. (Tuesdays, I borrow from Twitter @Vjknutson. Image mine.)
Is the writing on the wall so cryptic?Graphic images depict rageflames of dissonanceyoung men bleeding at their own handscompassion incapacitated. A sad awakening for a society fixatedon rights and privileges, dominating culture excluding the nurtureof humanity, or preservation of life.

….that precipitous drop in the top photograph is spellbinding. As a child we lived relatively near Niagara Falls and I remember standing at the railed-in edge of Horseshoe Falls and feeling mesmerized and almost sick with the feeling that the water was beckoning me, like a siren, to become one with it.
