Serpent Stone
i see a boy, and you a serpent stone. i am you and you are i, together we gaze at one another, you see what i am, and not what i was, yet what i was i still am, and what you were before so still are you. we share the same nectar of our mother's and father's misfortune without realizing, i don't expect you to remember any of this because i had yet to exist, and still the sounds you express speak of intention that you may not ever retrieve, so be careful of what groups they form, be mindful of what will always belong to you, and know what you cannot destroy until you embrace you as your own -
