Gummy on solanaIn the realm of Solana, a gummy's in charge,
A silly meme that's living large.

Turning regular folks into millionaires bold.
A funny candy leading a financial spree,
Who'd have thought it? It's...

Still Waters Turn with the TideBeneath the tranquil surface, secrets hide,
Water still like a mirror, calm and wide.
Yet deep below, a tempest starts to form,
A storm is brewing, nature's wild alarm.
Waves undulating, with a rhythmic dance,
Whispers of the wind, a...

Automatic killer coming from the dark side getting things done
Hillbilly style

Backwards Spells of FEAR Part I
so easy to fall, and so hard to break free
somehow as a child I knew
it was as if they knew my name before I had a clue

Mein kampf synonymous as a blooperMein kampf synonymous as a blooper
Writer of these words,
a former Lower Providence inhabitant,
who dwelled within darkest depths
of Dante Alighieri's inferno
for most of his outlandish, impish,

april 14 my computer is plotting against me
Sometimes I think
My computer is plotting against me
And only me!
Trying deliberately to drive me mad.

And crashes constantly.
It loses data...
