Of late I have descended into a loose chasm and have been experimenting with different substances<\/p>\n
I knew that this addiction was harming me<\/p>\n
But I could not stand the pain of my life<\/p>\n
Everything was bleak so I tried to inhibit the bright lights that surrounded me<\/p>\n
On Sunday I found myself in a cornfield<\/p>\n
My clothes were damp so I surmised that I had been there for a considerable time<\/p>\n
The sun was bright and low deep against the shadowed hills<\/p>\n
Which I appreciated even in my shattered state<\/p>\n
It was then that I spotted a dragonfly with its wings spread wide<\/p>\n
This simple creature was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen<\/p>\n
Minute water droplets were clinging to its thin wings<\/p>\n
And these were acting like prisms in the morning sun<\/p>\n
If I had not known better I would have thought<\/p>\n
That the that the tiny creature was covered in diamonds<\/p>\n
The dragonfly was aware of my presence but did not move<\/p>\n
It was almost as if it was on a mission from God<\/p>\n
I knew immediately that this was my epiphany<\/p>\n
And vowed to scrub myself clean with a rough harsh brush<\/p>\n
I might walk through summer cornfields on certain days<\/p>\n
But I would never again sleep in them<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
