Familiar Tasks


The task that seems impossible one day
may seem like child's play later on.

We grow into knowing how to do it
by doing it over and over again.

This is the gift of familiarity.

Every task is unique, though,
no matter how often it's repeated.

To miss this brings the gift of boredom.

Murder Unsolved

12
The bride and groom pose,
Innocent before the fall
Of all they valued,
In a gypsy caravan
Where panthers eat their hearts out.
