Three times we’ve watched you
Gun down our kings in the streets
Now you’ve placed our crown
Upon the brow of a fool
I’ve seen your blackness rape the
Light from good men’s souls
And pierce their hearts
With frozen arrows of anger
Yet still we do nothing but sit
Idly by as your raging
Winds push hatred deeper
Into the cracks of the world

Nothing is immortal
Educación, reflexiones y cultura general.
Life is a patchwork of moments — laughter, solitude, everyday joys, and quiet aches. Through scribbled stories, I explore travels both far and inward, from sunrise over unfamiliar streets to the comfort of home. This is life as I see it, captured in ink and memory. Stick around; let's wander together.
