Harmful Futures

It started from children living in disharmony. 

Parents living with fear and urgency. 

Their siblings leave them behind to seek their own legacy. 

The siblings that were their only friends leaving them helplessly. 

And as their siblings are driven to pursue-

There is a new need for people like me- years of helplessness to undo.
