A poem from my ao3.

Lovely voices of everyday life extend beyond their recognition.

May our voices reach their fullest potential, for only ourselves know the truth behind every word we speak.

With every glare, comes a price.

Brewing madness sets apart from the rest.

Tearing apart the fragile seams of civility.

Nihilistic juxtapositions between man’s souls and demeanor speak deeply to those with whom they claim they have seen enough.

Apathy runs rampant among individuals of all backgrounds, including those whose sense of self has rooted deep within themselves until it has become nothing more than a tarnished, bitter reality.

March’s spring weather proves unkind this year when the defiled floors have been swept with the wrath of the no longer existing civility of one individual.

An individual who stands in unison with another has made their decision to stand tall and riot against those that they consider less than they are.

To most, this individual is nothing more than an entity of hatred.

But often not, most overlook the journey of such hatred.

Behind those oak colored eyes that bore with hatred, there once was happiness behind them.

Once filled with laughter’s light now darkened by shadows of betrayal.

A child of joy, forged by a world of indifference.

In the ruins of swept civility, hatred blooms where hope once grew.

Now what remains is the faint metallic fiddle of his gun and the occasional swaying of his dark clothes, a shadow moving through silence.

His name will become synonymous with tragedy once the deed is done.

The consequences will be quick enough to make him suffer. 

Hatred knows no patience, and the pact binds tighter than doubt.

Bound by a silent oath, forged in the ashes of what they once believed in, with a steady breath, he lifts the trembling gun, yet the tremor in his arm makes it almost impossible to properly hold the cold gun.

So, he aims at his accomplice first, as they both had planned, letting his fingers take away.

The sound of the harsh collapse disperses throughout the scene, the silence deepens, only his shadow remains.

The cold barrel touches his temple, closing his eyes, the final blow reveals itself whole, a promise of oblivion.

As both blood puddles mix together, penetrating itself into the floor accumulating with a grand, singular red stain, it is as if their lives and their fates were never truly separate, only slowly being woven into a singular tapestry of ruin.

I remember a tale, Far to the east, In the cold empire, A plan was produced,

Favorite element?

Oof. Asking the big questions. Probably Caesium? Because it just sits there in oil all like "hey dude, I'm chill, lick me." But you should not lick the Caesium for it is deceitful and tastes of bang. Honourable mentions: Magnesium is fun. Helium is pretty great but we've wasted so much of it. Tungsten is obviously up there for all the boring reasons.

Happy pi day! Enjoy a delicious slice and you're welcome to take the knife with you when you're finished! 🔪

George Orwell's Animal Farm Cover Art

All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.

Dedicated to someone very special.

In your wake, you will realize all of your efforts have been futile.

Why not instead go back to your deserving hedonistic dance?

I need to know how and when you will realize your own actions have been in vain.

For I am the voyeurist that you so abhore.

Five years

Five Years.

Five years, and I still trace the shape of your presence— the way your fingers dance along the rim of a glass, the quiet rhythm of your breath when the world is still. You hum when you think, a sound softer than silence, and I have memorized every note.

Salt air clinging to our skin, laughter slipping between waves as we walked. You pointed to the stars as if they belonged to us, as if the sky had always known our names.

Italy woke beneath golden light, our footsteps weaving through streets older than memory. You reached for my hand without thinking, as if it had always belonged in yours.

Now, the kitchen glows in the hush of evening, the warmth of oil and spice rising between us. You stir the pot, I set the table— a quiet harmony, a life built in gestures. I watch you, I listen, I learn you. And after all this time, I love you still.
