Shattered innocence
Lost faith in humanity
There is nothing left.

I Guess This is Growing Up. As a kid, there’s always the interminable question, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” I was frequently stymied by the question.

Here’s a thing I wrote. Read it if you’d like. It didn’t do especially well on Substack.

Thanks Magicode! That means a lot coming from you. 💚

What is strength but hope?
To hold on when all seems lost
Straight on till morning.

Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it.

— Leo Tolstoy, A Confession (1882)

I sure love you PP. 😘

Dread slithers right in
At the crux of pain then trapped!
Glass over red wings.

Why does this not surprise me? People are so disappointing sometimes. It hurts my heart to see so much hate in the world. Where’s Billy when you need him?
