She sat She thought She winced at the pain She scratched at the pavement searching for a grain of improvement hoping for the mask to be removed The leaves twisted in the sun The birds hid from the disruption The cat perched on its hind legs She sat She looked for a new vision The pebble rolled towards her The brick crumbling The twigs cracking as she stepped ...

Written by contributing blogger: Daniela Forte. If there is anything those closest know about me, is that I am a traditionalist.
