Haiku winner: Nancy's sister
There were some phenomenal entries this past Friday-- I encourage you to read them all.
There were many fans of RRL's work:
Be yourself, unless
you can be Batman. If so,
always be Batman.
or
Every rose has its
thorn. Just like every night has
its dawn. And just like
every cowboy, sings
a sad, sad song, every rose
has its thorn...guitar.
And I certainly appreciated and understood this anonymous entry!
God is love, and part
of that is community.
CAPS NOTWITHSTANDING.
However, the one I found most moving was this, from "Nancy's Sister:"
She wrote it in blood
with the last beat of her heart:
Love you. Love is all.
I'm pretty sure that Nancy's Sister is one of the two surviving sisters of Nancy Bishop Langert, Jennifer and Jeanne, because that is exactly what Nancy did when she was murdered-- you can read their story here, which pretty much moots the need for a biography this week. Some things should not be reworked.
