Popping pills answered questions
and vallume became a subtitle
for the pain beneith her skin

- this is not about me.

I crave no gun
to break the barrier
I hold no war
to keep the peace
There remains a flask
in my sunken palm
and poison on my tongue...
because today I couldn't find my reef

Peace-making is a healing process and it begins with me, but it does not end there.

- Gene Knudsen Hoffman
I adore this quote.
