Un Sustain Able

wielding blunt weapons
       soul peddling at the cross road

                to be the greatest

This is awesome. I am just struggling to show people me. There is nothing in being the greatest if I lose sight as to who I am.

Amen to that! I am particularly me ;), took a while to embrace that, turns out it is so much easier than trying to be someone you are not. Thank you so much Bette! xomo

And with the blunt weapons, blunt force trauma on a massive scale. Sharp ink, if I might borrow your words.
