The Purple Ribbon (10th Violent Verse of 2010)

October 10th, 1582   Because of the implementation of the Gregorian calendar  this day does not exist in this year in Italy, Poland, Portugal and Spain. ~ On this day without hours brutality marches by on stilts, untouched, resilient and red, ignored, teetering, on and off the edge, permitted to smolder with the others; the warrior, the peacemaker, the carpenter and baker. So much dread, so little time. So many players, so little dared. More occasion than we’ve tolerance, more lifespan than pale seconds... tick tock, tick tock… again. Dislodged bones rising in the winter air, weighted only by love’s lingering infection; cruelty. © 2010 by mark prime Love is Respect - Domestic Violence Awareness
