"Let no one drag you to casket depth. Instead, hope they retrieve their soul from whatever well of pain they dropped it in. Pray the darkness they submerge themselves in, daily, be a birth canal, let them feel the kiss of a new mother, one more loving than the one they must have had, let that opaque hole only bring new light for them to focus on. Do not respond, Do not ask what was said in the sewing circle, at the rumor mill, around the poetry slam. Write. Read. Continue. Look for light, turn your music up, listen to those that truly love you. Let go."
- John S. Blake
Yes yes yes yes and
yes.
