My fingers upon the keys of a baby grand, playing a melody I never could. And my mouth opens to sing, to voice a song deep in me.

I found the alternative news to be unique, offering articles on topics not seen in mainstream media. However, this concept of open arms fringe media seems to have a harsh bias against religions.
