All is well

help

buttressed support

against deluged

slick coating

stick configurated

shelter, match

upside- down

grief-stricken

All is well

And as shall be

Family

check full table

tooth cost blood

Coins collected,

It seems

Truly

Moth cupped in

Loose fingertips

Drawn light for survival

Proof of

marked territory

crazed heart-

broken

All is well

as are intentions

never ending

veiled reunion

chest blown

sunlight filter

One last lunge

wide open window

candle flame read

old love

stories of man

who discovered

All is as it should be

We

Blessed

Tragedy carved in

rounded corners

of rage. In Grief,

funnel

comfort

from

poetry.

.

All is truly well

Inshallah.
