We Could Never See a World Beyond Hate
My first Nonet!
Disgust grew between us in shallow
Beliefs held by strong convictions,
And petty arguments meant
To dissuade us from a
World clear of ourselves,
Yet we never
Could see love
Beyond
Hate

The Light Turns
It's Tuesday 7:13 a.m. A cold and clear November morning awaits Ray on his morning commute. Ray rubs his hands together in the front seat of his Subaru. He turns the air temperature up, but keeps the air on low until the air warms up. He looks at the backup camera screen and reverses the Subaru out of his driveway onto Trimble Road.

It's so sad when they can't see the love through the hate. Loved your Nonet!
