After the fireworks fade,
and the last bottle rocket lands
I hope you will take a moment
followed by every moment
to question your Freedom.
If you’ve never sat down and read

I would encourage you to do so.… —-> Continue…
It’s after midnight, and
by all rights I should go to sleep.
But then again, some things can’t wait.
Ever since last night a line
has been repeating itself

It’s a line (or close to it) from
one of the Spider Man movies.… —-> Continue…
I’m beginning to see something.
