a piece of peace
hides
in my garden,
a piece of peace
hides
under my skin.
a piece of peace
hides
in every weapon,
a piece of peace
hides
in every sin.
it’s up to us to find the fragments,
it’s up to us to give peace wings,
it’s up to us to make it better…
not drown the mind in hateful things.

Well, Miriam, today the cotton candy is string gray and seems to weigh heavily with dark sky’s weeping sea…
