However desperate

to a better place

Richard Partridge

Dec 13, 2022

However desperate a situation is,
we can close our eyes to a better place.
One which could easily have been,
or be, our reality.

It is in these corners of solace where
our songs, poems and words come.
Gifts from another side to soothe
the dull ache of this perplexing monotony.
