Writing and Photography by Jeff E. Brown

Axe throwing at the ice lodge.
A retreat like no other.
Escaping from life to this?
If so, lunacy is your mother.

Take your leave when the shuttle comes.
You’re not cut out for what’s next.
Always third place.
You’re never the best.

But sometimes the goal
Is acknowledging that reality
Holds nothing good in its palm for you.
Leave now and embrace your liberty.
