a great write. to pull off something like this at 4:12 am is nothing short of remarkable. it had some great imagery (i loved the inclusion of 'auburn' by the way) and it flowed very nicely. good work.

As said a wonderful read for that time of the night...sometimes the clearest of thoughts for sure.

You always make me catch my breath, Abraham... Somehow, no matter what mood I may be in, I read your work and only see beauty. I sense a longing in this piece, a waking dream and a yearning to hold tight to a connection that you've maybe lost? I'm not sure...but if that is the case, I understand how that love consumed you. Great write. May you find your rest, my friend...

Be well,
