In a better place

And not in a race

Of unwanted thoughts…

Although the things I read

Only educate me on the

Ugliness of humanity…

Murder mysteries are

The genre I always devour

Usually able to complete in

One sitting…

While engaged

I’m seldom sad

Or wonder why…

But when the mystery

Is solved my minds looks

For a more terrifying

Text to occupy my

Worrying mind…
