I may not be as you think I am.
I may not be as you think I am. If I can make you laugh or weep. With words I’ve chosen carefully. Or sometimes cause your flesh to creep so that you shiver fearfully. Then I’ve succeeded with my task and done what I set out to do. Displayed what lies behind my mask But you cannot be sure can you. T...

Re: TREASON AGAINST A NATION
I suspect that you are right.

Sometimes the answers to our prayers are overabundant. You certainly have seen suffering from lack of rain and too much rain.
