liquor store

We burned down the liquor store. 

All of us together. Some that evening in an emblazoned rage, some in their hatred repeated through generations. It was impossible to point the blame because it seemed to come from all of us. Action, Reaction. 

There was nothing else to say. 

The ashen debris broke my heart open again. I didn’t think it had started to heal even yet. Its only last thread being a hold-onto of hope. Hope that we all get rebuilt.
