Poetry For Monday 14 April 2014 ~ I Have No Name
I have no name, I am as the fresh breeze of the mountains. I have no shelter; I am as the wandering waters. I have no sanctuary, like the dark gods; Nor am I in the shadow of deep temples. I have no […]

Quote of The Day 22 January 2014 – Believing
“When it comes to believing in god, I really, really tried… but… the more you look around, the more you realize… something is wrong here.

Quote of the Day 21 January 2014 – Desolate
