Tonight, the dark earth comes for one of its own.

Cowboy held no such  ties. These were no mere threads binding this precious boy together, but  heavy chains forged from the stygian soil of ...

As pretty as the lake and the surrounding woods were, it was still something wedged into nature by the hands of men — water stolen from rivers and collected here like a dragon’s hoard, grounds that had lain u...

#AnotherWorldOctober Day 21: A Favorite Live Show or Venue

I'm three days behind on these posts, and this prompt is the reason. COVID has taken so much from us, even those who have been lucky enough not to have lost loved ones (so far, knock on wood). Live music is, for me, the one that hurts the most.
