Why Don’t You Understand

Vanna


Notice of absence from Vanna
I come and go. Sometimes I will post everyday for a week and then I won’t post for months.

Why don’t you understand

everywhere is dangerous, everyone is dangerous.

Why don’t you understand it

can happen anywhere anytime.

Why don’t you understand?

It can happen to any age, any race, any gender.

Why don’t you understand?

No one is safe. No where is safe.

Why don’t you understand?

            Vanna… this carries a real urgency…that repeated question keeps building and doesn’t let go. It feels raw, direct, and meant to be heard. You held that intensity all the way through. Powerful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
