“Fastest Storm by Stewart Stafford

The fastest storm fell over us,
A rapid drop down a lift shaft,
The moon's spotlight blocked,
Wrapped tight in venomousness.

And under a wicked hand fallen,
The venal and honourable in flux,
A pantheon of money and might,
Gloved hand night clawed larceny.

The storm passed, fading into folklore,
Only by swift valour blocking knavery,
Clouds parted, cataracts cleared eyes,
A renaissance spark became an inferno.

“God’s laws are indisputable and irreproachable, they simply are the way of things. Those who obey God’s law will be blessed, while those who deny it will be cursed. If we build our lives on it, we will experience stability, health, and goodness. If we go against the law, we will struggle, we will feel empty, unstable, insecure, and void of meaning.”

“It dawns on me that this is probably the first time I've hugged my dad since he moved out, which just makes me hug harder, and suddenly there's so much I want to ask him - like: Wasn't there some way he and Mom could have worked it out and did he miss me before I came to live with him and does he still love me even though he hates Mom now? But I don't ask him any of that because if I did, then I'd definitely start crying and I may not be able to stop - ever. So I just keep hugging.”
