Persephone has left
for the Underworld,
along with
the wildflowers,
she so gracefully
gathers.
Though their absence
is brief,
they are destined, each,
to return,
once again,
in the Spring.

Staffers at the Post have been on edge for weeks about the rumored cuts, which the publication would not confirm or deny. “It’s an absolute bloodbath,” said one employee, not authorized to speak publicly. Continue reading...

We woke to snow,
after our summer
had long past,
after autumn
had taken everything
from us
we looked desperately
to a spring
that would never
come again
finally accepting
winter &
the ending
it would bring
we kissed goodbye
beneath the
cold beauty
of snowflakes
falling gently

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
