Hope you are feeling better. Apologies if we made light of things. I wrote the first post last week, a nod at the end to my gratitude for the WL.

DeleteGreat list, Shay. Will be back.
ReplyDeleteThank you Shay. I wish I could say this one was fiction for me but sadly it was true..Jae
ReplyDeleteShay, I ended up writing two poems. I never know where your word list will take me, but this took me to a raw honesty and anger I didn't expect. It took me to a Sunday morning where I stood against a church wall contemplating jumping out a second story window.
