This you will not be forgiven for.
Not this.
Nor will any one of us who does not speak up for them.
This. Butchering of hearts.
This lack of compassion.
This unthinkable act of human barbarity.
We did this once.
We sold children from their mothers.
This bragging of idiots defending atrocity.
This little one. Right here. She is everything we stand for.
She is the world come crashing down on us.
She will never be the same.
Nor will I.

2 c. diced, cooked ham
3 carrots
1/2 c. onions

Add 1 1/2 quarts chicken broth (for me, after cooking a whole chicken
add the smaller, shredded pieces of chicken
some frozen spinach
Cook for 10 hours on low.
Remove split peas as best you can, put in blender and blend, add back into soup. Makes it thicker. If needed, add some corn starch to thicken more.
salt and pepper, a bit of basil, oregano, chives
Tired.
You know this feeling,
it comes after you go back to work.
Body aches to go to bed,
but you just finished
loading dishwasher,
pulling chicken off bone,
making soup,
lunches for tomorrow.
What shall it be?
Chapter 1 review,
or head hitting pillow immediately?
Half hour of reading,
Clock hits midnight,
Coach turns to pumpkin,
Good night.
