Yours truly riddled with social anxiety,
hence (billy me) he will idle away

life in ancient Greece, the land largely
deforested to build a navy,...

and being stuck 
trying to merely survive
with mostly "Loser" marginalization
dehydration
ancient locked-up degeneration

Feels like same difference
between economic red-lined
unenlightened Othering
smothering suppression
and flat-lined politically disempowering
oppression

Feels like a thoughtful distinction
with a...

DOGE DO(D)GE is a game:
Accepting praise - never blame.
It's a dodge all right!

Older than moons wept for their orbit.

She stands.

Shimmers to the slow...

Thank you, for excavating from dead tongue
Under midden of lies
The archive of our own history
The outlines of identity
So we under obscurity white sheet
Could find resurrection of self
In another voice oppressed
But unconceding of its comeliness.
