These murdering monsters should be punished in prison and throw away the keys.🔐

Good God, Michael, you are a true wordsmith. This post is pure poetry and medicine for the heartbroken. This is particularly eloquent and impactful:

"Where the clouds have enough space to tell their own stories. Dark storms to the right, promising to catch you as you tear along the highway, as above you caravans of cumulus migrate to a horizon you will never reach."

Wow. And thank you.

Thank goodness there are poets like you, Michael, to capture the unspeakable truths of this era. Only the arts are adequate at these times in history.

West Aussies, all so friendly and reliable. But when the moral test came, most of them bent over like gullible, gutless lickspittles.

Thank you Michael for sharing this heartbreaking story of loss and perseverence and a mother’s love.

You’ve done a nice job in the telling of it. The senselessness is heavy and your description of the endless desolate distance adds weight.
