from your   cage of fleshly endeavors   closed so many doors in my face our future  dissolved into nothingness   soggy eyes  blinded my emergency exit this heart shattered buckling knees could barely move my leaden feet managed to find a precariously placed cement gray stepping stone promising  only   unfathomable desolation into unknown destinations    unsolved  mysteries   editing  personal histories who what  why riddle psyche and soul   onto  a continuous loop

Sudden departure
from your   cage of fleshly endeavors   closed so many doors in my face our future  dissolved into nothingness   soggy eyes  blinded my emergency exit this heart shattered buckling knees could barely move my leaden feet managed to find a precariously placed cement gray stepping stone promising  only   unfathomable desolation into unknown destinations    unsolved  mysteries   editing  personal histories who what  why riddle psyche and soul   onto  a continuous loop
July 14,  2002  - now almost  12 years ago, is the day   that lives in infamy in my  and my families life.My husband of nearly 20 years  was murdered in his office. Assailant and reason still unknown .Not a robbery. While my emotions  are not as raw as in the early days & months  the heartbreak   of those first hours  and weeks still   resounds in me . Unless I get  a memory loss disease  ,will stay with me  until my last day  in this earthly shell.Tom , you are not forgotten.That is an ending  none of us ever fathomed for you .
