Echoes in the Alley

9 November 2025 – Another downtown alley, another grimy shed in a downtown alley, the usual casual scrawls and scars.

Amidst all that, I suddenly realize, eleven neatly lettered words.

Echoes of old strife, rage, pain and loss.

Echoes, also, of love and enduring hope for another chance.
