The red coated stranger. In loafers. And mustache. Puts his palm out. Turns head away from….The Hope-filled One….Passing out tracts. And last time I came here…. There were no tracts. No Jesus. No noticeable believers. So bold in a city. Unmasking. Christianity. Only…. Palm readers. Beggars. Buildings of Scientology, asking you to pay […]

Twittering. Trying to find a communication source outside the grounds….in hopes to figure out what was going on. Rumor has it…..A potential man with a gun was walking […]
