Today I'm going to write a few words about someone in my family of whom I have a lot and yet little understanding, it may be painfully obvious who it is but I shall hold back on naming them.
There is no doubt that you have suffered in your time, no doubt that crippling loneliness fills your time, yet you make little time, in mind, for thoughts of others except those of little relevence to yourself.
You are a mother but unlike a mother that nurtures, you make your children suffer and have done all their lives. Whether on purpose or by accident, it is difficult to tell for your mind has unfurled and is sporadic as the flecks of paint flicked from a brush at a blank canvas. Mean and frustratingly oblivious to any harm caused by your senselessly and tactlessly wagging tongue.
For someone as anxious as yourself, for someone so affraid of the new and of wiping the dust from their bulging wallet as you, it seems rediculous to me, an impartial observer, that you would treat others so.
I have to comfort and reeassure my own mother that she does not ressemble you, so affraid is she that she carries genes. And her brother, of whom I am very fond, has led a lot of life in crying hands thanks to the lonely witch in her tower.
You will not be missed and I shall do nothing to remember you.
Thank you for reading,
Alec:

Writing of the Week:
This week two more poems for your pleasure: =D
Lonely One [Read]
This is poem from my 'Pain of Monotony' Collection that was written for the poetry portion of my degree. Poetry isn't my forte but this was a hard period for me and it helped at the time to transfer some feeling onto paper. I hope you can appreciate this.
The Room [Read]
I was once trapped inside a room. We all have been at some stage, whether literally or metaphorically. Trapped and then set free. That is what this poem is all about. Entrapment and freedom.
Quote(s) of the Week:
"Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why." ~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
