ADMIN PASSWORD: Remember Me

Ondine
She's got everything she needs, She's an artist, she don't look back. She's got everything she needs, She's an artist, she don't look back. She can take the dark out of the nighttime And paint the daytime black. --Bob Dylan

This is for Joe and everyone else out there suffering from depression.

Children of the Slow

Children of the slow do not walk a minute behind the rest of us from sorrow.
Careful charting of the maelstrom forces their shambling gait.

They navigate, stiff backed, through a miasma of shattered glass.
Freezing with each step, in terror of floating shards slicing bits of them

Away.
Lost.
Forever.

Children of the slow do not walk a minute behind the rest of us from despair.
They make ready for battle with demons following in their shadowy wake.

For them, each foot forward is a war won.
There are none braver than these children of the slow.
