Suffocated by the burden of life from which there is no reprieve
Gazed upon by the curious hiding behind the stares of mediocrity

My brother, of which I only have one and he's my only sibling, rarely invites me or my daughter or the kids to any family get-togethers. I would say never invites us but once in a while he tosses . . . more

I wish not for anguish.
