This longing inside of me gnaws like a hungry dog on a naked bone The meat is gone All that is left is the lingering taste in the mouth But it was hours ago when consumed. The bone is not much company Yet is that true? Does my body play tricks on me? Am I …
Recently I read Dolores Cannon’s 3 Waves of Volunteers.
