Something to Live For Silence sweeps the room. I can feel the fire, the fiery rage that makes me    think shady. I know I should go    calm myself down. I know my peace    has to come from looking in the eyes    of my newborn baby. So I sit with her    by the window and watch the stray dogs    play on the hillside. If I didn't have    my baby girl I might go insane. When I think about her I think about life, and there goes the sound    of a passing train. Onnie B., 19 Log Cabin Ranch
