Made to love, but not to be loved; made to understand, but not to be understood; always the poet, never the poetry.
what I say: I’m fine
What I mean: Sometimes there are no words, no clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened that day. Sometimes you do everything right, everything exactly right, and still you feel like you failed. Did it need to end that way? Could something have been done to prevent the tragedy in the first place? Eighty-nine murders at the pig farm; the deaths of Mason and Lucas Turner make ninety-one lives snuffed out. Kelly Shane will go home and try to recover, to reconnect with her family, but she'll never be a child again. William Hightower, who gave his leg for his country, gave the rest of himself to avenge his sister's murder. That makes ninety-three lives forever altered, not counting family and friends, in a small town in Sarnia, Ontario, who thought monsters didn't exist, until they learned that they spent their lives with one. And what about my team? How many more times will they be able to look into the abyss? How many more times before they won't ever recover the pieces of themselves that this job takes? Like I said, sometimes there are no words, no clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened that day. You should have made a deal. Sometimes, the day just... [the screen cuts to black as a gunshot rings out] …ends.

Lost Object Spell
A spell to enhance your concentration and mentally retrace your steps to the last known sighting of your missing item. You can initiate this ritual anytime, but performing it during a Full Moon will significantly boost its power.
• A suitably sized mirror
• An orange candle
• A black candle
• A magnet
• Basil oil
• Patchouli incense
Arrange the mirror on your altar, position the orange candle to the right and the black candle to the left, with the magnet right in the middle. Move clockwise around the room with a lit patchouli incense, inviting the elemental energies into your circle, conclude in front of the mirror. Envision the missing item and chant: "With sight and sound, let what's lost be found". Apply basil oil to the black candle and light it, focusing on the missing item. Do the same with the orange while recalling its last location. Touch the magnet, look in the mirror and chant: "Shown in the mirror, may the magnet draw near what's dear". Maintain your focus on the mirror, repeating the chant and remain open to any visual hints that might indicate where the item is. Convey your thanks to the elements by saying: "Elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, I entrust this circle to your care. Return to the depths and the skies, with my graditude and loving goodbyes". Circle your space counterclockwise with the incense. Allow the candles to burn down naturally with the magnet between them, then proceed to retrieve your misplaced object.
