Mirror, Mirror
1 The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. Clouds of grey smoke twirl upward spiraling around the colored tapestries hanging above my crown. The still warm mouthpiece of my water pipe sits only inches from where it left my wicked lips. Her image still lingers in the reflecting glass, haunting me. My poor dead stepdaughter. Daddy’s perfect little princess all rotted away.

Songs of protest in a time of change
The times they are A- Changin...I'll take you there...A Change is gonna come Yes, they are all song titles. Bob Dylan, The Staples Sisters, and Sam Cooke in that order. Great songs with great titles. I’ve included the video for Sam Cooke at the top and the other two at the bottom. Please listen to them all. A change is gonna come is my favorite of the three. The song is so powerful in the lyrics, emotion, and message. But all three songs were powerful voices of change in turbulent times.

The burning house
If walls could talk, they would tell countless tales. Stories of every kind would spin from the brick or stone or wood of their surface. Sonnets of love, tragedies of heartbreak, epics of war, fairy tales of ancient times, fables, legends, tall tales, and parables would all be told. If walls could talk, you would listen to every word with delight. They would transport you into the past, into glimpses of lives lived, moments made, journeys taken.
