beyond the soul.
...and what are the words one uses to describe a compilation?, works from my entire life?, fifty years of carrying around a yellow pad?, fifty years of writing and rewriting, changing the words, as their meanings change for me?
These pieses are extracted from my book of prose, “50 Truths and 50 Lies, the first 50 years.” Available From: http://www.cafepress.com/byrongates.26516064
the depth of depression
goes way beyond the soul.
it makes everyone ugly,
everyone against you.
first it robs you of your smile,
then it pilfers your sanity.
