The Vow
Meaning of true love in 50 words.
A future lost
In a primordial vastness of doubt
Visions of
Irregular starburst scars spotted
upon translucent sheets of silver
Old vows fragment
Life
Love
Till death
Dreams vanish...
Superseded by strength
New vows sworn
Courage
Hope
Faith
Tomorrow
Treatments…
Comforting hands hold
Unspoken words
We shall heal
Together
Forever
About the Creator

I have enjoyed writing for most of my life, never professionally.
I wish to now share my stories with others, lets see where it goes.
Born and raised on the Canadian Prairies, I currently reside on the West Coast. I call both places home.
Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
