Stroke.

Stroke the dark.

Pet it, like the ocean does the shore.

Lick its wounds, as you would for your father. Your brother. Your mother. Your lover.

It's been years I know. But I figured I would start adding little tidbits of my life into these blogs. After years of being a member of this site, I've decided I want to get more involved, and this is my first tiny step. I have decided to post this piece on here that I have written recently. I guess I'll have to set it...
