Influencers in the Wild, poem
Gimmicks and affectations are no replacements for personality and struggle. Bullies will still graduate and get jobs they don’t deserve. Your hero is a fraud, and their heroes were the villians. So what does that make you? You are more than what you say and type, but you are only what you do.

Power is a Predator

Existence simply is, And survival is the question. How do you survive, When the powers are your predator? So many never ask, But many moreContinue reading “Power is a Predator”
