To Leave the War House Locked ~ L'assemblage by Michael Douglas Jones ©2025
Original artwork available at Gallery 322
In my past, there was a warehouse where I stored my weapons of war. My anger and hurt were in there, with my drawn out plans of vengeance against those that had wronged me. I locked it deep inside me as I went about my days, and now the lock has rusted shut; I cannot get back in, and I’ve forgotten what I was fighting about.
Perhaps it is time to forgive those that have wronged me and to leave the war house locked.
~Michael Douglas Jones
