"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

Sharing The Dark...Nightminds 

 (Nightminds - Missy Higgins)
 



Perilous lonely chaos
Fractured and interrupted
By blessed moments
Of silent calm



Sharing the dark



Life bifurcated on a razors edge
Walking on a tightrope
With cut feet
Slicing reality in two



With precarious steps



On
Blood stained
Cold titanium steel
