Once upon a fairytale …
written by Anne G
Once upon a fairytale …
The world was mine; happiness reigned, fairness ruled. The rising sun; proclamation of good things to come. The star-filled night; confirmation of rest well earned.
Then came the darkening clouds; harbingers of dangerous times. Advancing columns, enemy troops; death, destruction, fire and smoke. Rule of Law ceased to exist; coup d’état, chaos ensued.
My world was gone; misery and sorrow reigned supreme. Subjected to inequity, tyrannical injustice ruled. The rising sun and star-filled nights were fleeting glimpses of a time; once upon a fairytale.

Why write? I write because I am: Driven to distraction by the inequities of the society in which we live. Motivated by cruelty, abuse, ignorance and indifference. My intention: To poke, prod and provoke!
